PROJECT STORM - crass V8 power in subtle Defender

And another one! This morning there was only one story about that Project Evolution from the American tuner ECD Automotive Design and now comes the next one. Apparently right after completion of the Basalt Black Metallic lacquered copy now comes in shiny one Stealth Corris Gray, The conversion is almost identical and the biggest difference, in addition to the paint, is probably the somewhat filigree 9 spoke alloy wheel set which is also equipped with grobstolligen all-terrain off-road tires. The D110 body was otherwise refined but very similar. There was the widebody kit around with Heritage grille, a solid roof construction including rear ladder, new bumpers front and rear (front including winch, underride protection and ramming protection) and also the changed suspension including height adjustment is installed.

Again, a V8 engine had to go in

For improved illumination, there was also a large LED light bar on the roof, and the black LED headlights and rear lights are also retro-fitted by ECD Automotive Design. Under the bonnet slumbers this time a V8 engine from the Corvette and of course, the interior has been completely modified. This time, however, the color accents are missing. Everything was lined with black leather and even the instrument cluster's round instruments are black and not red as usual. The cabin is rounded off with plenty of carbon details, a Momo sports steering wheel and the usual attention to detail right down to the floor mats.

modern infotainment system is one of them

And also the driver and the passengers of this Defender enjoy from now on a completely new sound system which brings beside a navigation system or Bluetooth compatibility also USB connections and further modern amenities. If we receive timely information on further changes, there is of course an update for this report. You will be informed if yours is just ours Feed subscribe to.
