Hey everybody!

New member here but have been on this forum for a couple of months looking at info, reading posts, looking at your upgrades, etc.

I have a Black 2004 Jaguar X-Type 3.0. I'm fairly new to personally working on cars but put in some work previously.

So far I have plasti-dipped my chrome window trim, grill, running strips on front and back and back chrome piece above the license plate.

The next things I would like to do:

- take off wheels, deep clean rims inside and out
- replace stock lugs with black lugs
- plasti dip rims
- tint windows
- dvd in dash / bluetooth
- replace rear speakers

I have been looking on the forums for information to my specific needs but still have some questions.

Finding out what lug nuts will fit for sure is proving a little tricky
I also am having doubts on if I should try to replace the radio or not. I know many people have had success with changing to a double din and I have rad other places that its not even worth it due to the fiber optic cable and that you would have to have several amps and rewire the whole car. I was going to go through crutchfield because they have all the wiring and harness etc and it all comes with it but I am not sure if it will be correct.

Anyway, thanks for all the info etc. I have already got on this forum. I hope to be here for a long time!
