Car looks good. What the deal with the "P7ish" grill? DIY or aftermarket?

Very nice, nice color combination too - they really pop against the black paint. Other than the super expensive HRE or Forgeline offerings, these are the best looking wheels I've seen on an F Type. May I ask a few questions that are not addressed on their site?
I see that they offer three levels of "concaveness". Your fronts appear to be the least concave. Are your rears the mid level, or the most extreme?
Did you order stock sizes, or did you specify the offsets?
Are the lug nuts flat against the wheel, like stock Jag wheels, or are they conical, which helps to center the wheel on the studs?
Did they supply the lug nuts?
If they are flat, are the wheels hub-centric?
Sorry for so many questions, but I'm considering a set for my F Type.

Thanks!
Their RF series is not bad priced at all... The VS is only a few hundred more if you want full custom/forged. I just happen to like the RF1.2 a little better than the VS02.
Mid level concave... Think if you went bigger on the back you could get more.
They are built to order and take about 4-5 weeks. Stock width but offsets are whatever you like on the RF. After a lot of research I went with the above offsets. Little bit on the conservative side.
The lugs are conical/ball shaped and the bore is hub-centric (63.4).
They supplied the black lugs and locks.
Everything fit perfect!
Bought from Tiko @ n4sm... Excellent service!

Nice setup! How much caliper clearance do you have at front? I could go ET45 in your opinion or 40 is on the limit?
