I'm going to make an out there suggestion. Paint it like a tractor, ie just apply the paint without masking anything but the glass. All one uniform colour.

Temeraire (2018 quasar grey automatic)
One of the last 200ish of the gen3s, probably.

Been a while lads . Jimny running fine but getting ERG fault , cleaned the valve reset the error code and it comes on every week or two. Living with it. Now getting a lot of work out of the Jimny but wanted to increase my tool carrying capacity with out removing the back seats as the kids truck around with me from time to time. So I installed my old shelf but raised it up to provide an upper and lower shelf thus keeping my back seats.
Probably done before but really find it a useful mod. So my old shelf rests on the back seats folded down and I places two bits of timber about 150mm tall at the back to level it off and Ive got a great storage space under and over the shelf
