    Hi guys. First off, I'm absolutely loving the new Hopper, it's great fun to drive and ... crash, obviously. Anyway, I have a few ideas I'd love to share about what we could add/ change about the Hopper with mods. List:

    1. Skins

    Old Landrover Defender Skin.
    The Hopper is based on the Jeep Wrangler or maybe a mashup between the Wrangler, Land Cruiser, Willy's Jeep and the LR Defender. However, a skin would be awesome which would be a decal from the old LR Defender, just as it came out. Like pictured below.



    2. Body style
    The original defender 90 and the above mentioned vehicles originated with a 2 seater, soft top design. However, an extended wheel base like the Defender 110 and the Jeep Wrangler (newer models) would be insane, as pictured below.



    3. Engines

    A 2.5 tdi variant would be cool, something quite slow but with torque. Another great option could be a 3.9 V8, like the Chrysler derived engine found in the US defender when it was about in the mid nineties.

    4. Facias and wheels

    So, the Wrangler, mid way through it's life, basically went from square headlights to circular headlights. It'd be great to see facelifted options for the headlights, same with the rear lights too. What'd also be great is the Land Rover Defender wheels, as pictured, which were found on a lot of Range Rovers and Land Rovers throughout the 80s and 90s.



    What do you guys think?

    If you want the skins, make them yourself. They're not hard to make, and I can make a good skin in less than an hour! :)

    What about a pickup version of the Ibishu Hopper? That would be a great idea!
