Chinese EBay special was $6 or so each. OEM rectangular one is $50 used, also on EBay. I saw a decent one at that price, and a worn one for half that.

Besides, with matching leapers on the fenders, you tend to forget that the "R" emblems are replicas.

Hi,
Transformed S-Type badge to fender and painted it with body color like the small leaper badge. Other fender with body colour R-badge. Trunk with black R-badge and black big leaper and Jaguar text. Front emblem leaper allso black.

Hello,
Headlight trims were normal chrome look as original. Meditate they will not look good on big picture that was planning. Painted those body colour like all badges. Will do the tail light trims soon to suit front look.


So there IS plan how to make this Kitty to purr darker
This STR will be...well..dark...lol
