Pretty cool! Nice custom details.

Love it!! Maybe the halos red would look a little better. Where did you get those fender inserts?

Are you referring to the black plastic trim on the fender? If so, that is OEM.

looks like a show truck, also has headlight washers in the bumper, reminds me of Tron

Nvm... Those are from the Land Rover. Found them on eBay, getting permission from the wife to do that mod, I really liked it.

Unless we are not talking about the same thing, I have them on mine and also had them on the 2011. They are on all model years of the 5th gen.

I think he was asking about the added fender vents (Land Rover style).

Yea, sorry Peter, I was referring to the fender vents that are Land Rover vents. I thought they were OEM for the explorers in Russia.

Okay, I see now. There are pictures of that type of insert in the Forum as well in case you are interested.

Why the sport rims but not the sport front grill?

I don't think that grill would have allowed the same kind of paint design.

Don't get me wrong I like the work.

Way too much red overkill, looks like a kids honda!
Not subtle, 'less is more'. Do like fender vents, just not those.

Yes Russia is special...dah.
All exported Ex to Euro, and other countries that mandate the HL washer have must have it plus other stuff etc.

+1. I think it looks very "teenager". Last thing to add to this would be to add a rear spoiler that's at least 2 feet high, in red.

Well my teenage years are many decades behind me but I think it looks good.
