I will be cruising through these forums and looking forward to being apart of the community. Here's a picture of my Jaguar XK 2011.
I added a custom black matt vinyl stripe on the hood and the side vents and the spoiler on the back I blacked out.
changed out the rims and modified the exhaust to glasspacks to give a little rumble. I also swapped out the chrome grill for a black one.

I did have to replace the engine as the first engine just stopped working after 65k miles which really sucked.. since I was already in deep with the car I got another engine in it with 10k less miles with a lifetime warranty on the Engine for a free replacement. Probably will never get rid of the car now since I have so much into it.

I would like to black out the drip molding and I may get it a full wrap on it. I wish it was the XKR version but when I was shopping I didn't see any that had a good history for that year so I went with the XK.
