I recently purchased a 2015 Firesand F-Type R Coupe without the black pack. Since I really do believe that you should have the black pack with the Firesand paint, I will retrofit the black pack to my car.

Taking it directly to the dealer to get it done is very expensive - just the material cost is ~50 % higher than if I buy the parts (genuine Jaguar OEM) online. I've received a quote for just the job at one of the authorised service workshops in my area, so I will source the parts online in order to save some money.

HOWEVER, I find it somewhat difficult to feel 100 % certain that I order the right things. The parts I plan on ordering are:

- Drip molding/ window trim (RH) , T2R25430
- Drip molding/ window trim (LH), T2R25432
- Front molding/ under side mirror (RH), T2R11256
- Front molding/ under side mirror (LH) , T2R11257
- Waist seal (RH), T2R11258
- Waist seal (LH), T2R11259
- Front grille surround, T2R3563
- Side vent (RH), T2R5995
- Side vent (LH), T2R5996

I know this is a long shot, but would anyone here be able to confirm that this is the correct part list for the black pack upgrade?

Would be tremendously appreciated!

i have very slightly used hood and fender bonnets to save you a few hundred dollars I was just about to list.

 

Thanks but my hood vents are already black (think that was standard with R Coupes for that MY), and the side vents are actually the only parts I have already ordered.

You don't happen to have a gloss black front grille surround?

 

People typically have the parts wrapped in black to get the look at much lower cost. Just an idea. Also, consider having the exhaust tips ceramic coated black, completes the look IMHO.

 

I prefer it original. Just got the part numbers confirmed and ordered the parts.

Thanks for the tip regarding the exhaust, I can see how that completes the look - I'll consider doing that as well.

 

for 400 euros i had the black pack painted doors trim grille front and side vents gloss black

 

I do. I have the complete stock front grill and surround as well.

 

You do? In that case I may be interested in buying it. How come you have it - have you upgraded to a third party grille? What's the condition of the grille surround? To my understanding I only need the surround to upgrade to the black pack, do you know if that is correct?

Do you know if the shipping cost to Stockholm/ Sweden would be reasonable?

 

yeah, I am doing the bumperless bar P7 grille and surround. Mine is like new, but shipping would murder it. Probably best to order new from one of your local jaguar dealers or website... its not expensive at all.

 

Ok thanks. Then I'll keep my online order from the UK. Buying it from a dealer here in Sweden is maybe not a huge amount of money, but "overprized". I would pay ~900 USD for it buying from my Jaguar dealer. Ordering it from the UK I pay ~300 USD less, incl. VAT.

 

Yikes. I could ship it to you for $500 total including the grill and bar if you want to go that route.

 

 

Hi, I am in NH and would be interested in maybe buying the parts you don't want.

 

Much better if you sell the parts to other US buyers where the shipping charge won't make up a large portion of the total cost - seems like you spawned some interest here in the thread.

 

Send me a PM.

 

Hey - tell me did you remove and install the drip moulding yourself or get someone else to do it ?? im looking at doing the same thing, except im going from black to chrome.

Thanks

 

I ordered the parts online and then took them to my local Jaguar dealer that did the job.

Best of luck!

 

awesome!! what did they charge you to get it done?

 

Well being Sweden it was pretty expensive, like 1300 USD or so.
