Overview
The 2018–2019 Range Rover Sport L494 occupies a rare space — a vehicle that feels equally at home on a city boulevard or a fast-flowing back road. It is a machine defined by presence, and the front end is the first thing anyone sees. The factory grille, while refined, leaves room for those who want their Sport to read as something a little more serious.
This carbon fibre front centre grille insert is designed to sit directly within your existing grille aperture, replacing the standard infill with a woven carbon surface that immediately shifts the visual weight of the vehicle's nose. The result is subtler than a full grille replacement but no less impactful — the deep, layered texture of real carbon fibre catches light in a way that painted or chrome finishes simply cannot replicate.
Manufactured from high-grade carbon fibre composite with a clear-coated gloss finish, the insert is both lightweight and structurally sound. It has been dimensioned specifically to the L494 facelift-era Sport front end, ensuring the fitment is clean and precise rather than approximate. If you're building a cohesive exterior look or simply want to elevate one key detail, this is a straightforward, high-return modification.

Installation Notes
Difficulty: Intermediate · Estimated Time: 45–90 minutes · Professional Installation Recommended
- Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface with the engine off and fully cooled before beginning work on the front end.
- Using appropriate trim removal tools, carefully disengage the factory grille assembly from the front bumper. Refer to a workshop manual or online guide specific to the 2018–2019 L494 Sport for clip locations.
- Remove the existing centre grille infill panel from the grille frame. This is typically retained by press-fit clips along the perimeter — work around the edges methodically to avoid cracking the surrounding surround.
- Offer up the carbon fibre insert and confirm alignment within the aperture before committing to fitment. Check all edges sit flush with the surrounding frame.
- Secure the insert using the original clip points or a suitable automotive-grade adhesive trim tape where clips are not retained. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before applying any adhesive.
- Refit the grille assembly to the bumper, confirming all clips and retaining points are fully seated before stepping back to inspect the finished result.
⚠ Note: Installation instructions are not included with this product. If you are not confident working with front bumper assemblies or trim components, we strongly recommend entrusting this installation to a qualified automotive technician or body shop familiar with Land Rover vehicles.
