Default Murdered Out Orange & Black F-Type

I know this will cause some commotion but this is what I always do. I make a car mine. The Firesand Metalic Orange F-Type with Black Pack is a great start but I took mine a step further. Ordered the F-Type stripe (only available in gray or silver) and had it used as a pattern to make a gloss black version. Then blacked out the tail lights and finally de-badged the Jaguar from the spoiler just leaving a newly chromed black leaper and had the F-Type logo and the S logo painted black so it stands out better on the orange car.

I love it. I know not everyone will but what the heck right?

Scott - that looks awesome!!!! My only question is on the blacked out tail lights - are there specs as to percentage of black or visible distance? Have seen a few rear end collisions locally caused by blacked out tail lights - just wondering if there is a standard either federal or state.

These aren't even close to being totally blacked out. There are visible at twice the distance required by Nevada law. I don't like the completely blacked out ones for the reason you state. Too dangerous. These are about 60% blacked out. The picture may not show it because the lights aren't on.

Hello,
Are you referring to my signature? If so our website catalog is constantly being built and F-Type is in the works. I am a true enthusiasts and therefore love to read threads and I'm active on the boards.

I can't say I like it or not without seeing the whole car. However, part of the joy of ownership is making it your own--have fun with it. Give us some more pictures; I think I'm going to like it. Orange and black is a sweet combination.

Yes, I wasnt saying that in a negative way, just wondering if you are offering anything for F-Types as I didnt see anything on your website.
