NATO Light Stone Discovery

[ERover82]

I always thought Rovers looked great in NATO Light Stone, but I'd never seen a Discovery in that color. I'm considering painting my D1 and wanted to see what it might look like. After some work in Photoshop, here's what I came up with:

I can think of about 25 other colors I would paint mine before NATO light stone.. But hey it's your truck man go for it!

Yea, I would have to say NATO white and diplomat escort black would be among those other 25 for me as well. But, as was said, I am all for each one doing their own thing with their rover from mods, to decals, to paint, so go for it!

I agree with Hokie, go for it. But do the hood blackout, as that would be tits.

Kind of like it, just not sure I could actually do it.

For some reason im just not liking it on disco. There was a camo one on here somewhere I did like though

 

[stu454]

I like it.

If you're going to do this, for God's sake don't go to Maaco. Prepare to shell out and have a pro do it.

i like it...with black wheels and hood blackout would look sweet.

Yep, go for it. Ive been considering picking up a non running D1 here in town (radio/alarm code) and doing the same.

 

[jrose609]

I like that color. I say do it.

 

[mike97d1]

Not bad, but I would like to see one in flat olive drab

 

[lockenDiff]

Those pics to me look pink , never seen it in person so... maybe Im color retarded.
Edit. I see now Its a photoshop(read not look), I swear that one pic looks pink.

With black wheels and a hood black out as somebody else suggested I think it would look very good. Go for it.

 

[ERover82]

Here's a new one I did with black rims, hood blackout, and flares:

 

[1MITCH1]

Not too bad, just don't paint the wheels that color.

ltngaines on here painted his D1. It's darker than sandstone and looks great, I've seen it in person. Lightstone is too light IMO.

 

[ERover82]

Thanks that's the first real one I've seen. I'm still just kicking the idea around. I think it only looks good on fully outfitted Discos and even then it looks better on Defenders. I think the dark blue I have looks pretty good too.

I have one of those seemingly rare D1s with factory flares and larger side trim. I started removing all the trim and found squares holes in addition to the very difficult to remove double sided tape. Anyways I'll have to have a body shop fill the holes, and might as well do a paint job. Never seen these holes on other Discos before. Must just be a rare trim option.

I like it, do it.

Jeep is actually painting brand new ones in light stone. I have seen a couple and I think they look great. The true safari color!
