Jag79 - thanks for the link bro.. was ready to pull the trigger but noticed on the description ..* The mesh insert requires your original plastic mesh grille as a frame. The item cannot be installed without this frame... i dont have the OG plastic grille am i SOL or is there a way around this.?? thanks again.

 

Bro I'm glad. Could help, but as far as I know there is no work around without having the oem plastic frame for support of the Mina grill. Did you try loOking uP on eBay how much the Plastic grill cost? Someone on here may chime in to give you a work around if possible, hang in there....

 

Here's mine



A rare sight in England, 4 STR's at a Jaguar Enthusiasts meeting

 

@smicker: what was the source of the great looking quad exhaust tips on your car? Did they require any trimming of the lower valence panel?

 

The exhaust was supplied and fitted along with other modifications here in the UK by a company called Racing Green Cars, who specialise in upgrading Jaguars and TVR's

To accomodate the quad tailpipes the rear valance was elongated and then re-painted

Regards
Kevin

 

Hi
Where was the Jag meeting? Id Like to come along to the next

 

I'm more interested in that nice wheel setup

 

Those are the Arden wheel upgrade, and probably way too pricey... Shipping alone will be quite expensive. I will really like to see a set of CONCAVE5 from 360wheels, they're here in Florida. I've talked to them, but they say our cars have too much + offset, so the wheels on the back can't be so dramatic on the lip and the depth of the concave. But never the less its worth trying!

I'll post some updated ones of mine that I had in the other thread.

 

I really need a lower mes grill..

 

Here's mine:

 

this was from march of 2010 i do believe. In so-cal. mine is the STR in the middle

 

You should check on Ebay, I just got mine $120 and free shipping. BTW are your wheels chrome? Nice car, it reminds me of my STR

 

Pics of mine. Hope to have the wheels back in a few weeks.

 

Fresh tint

 

 

Here is just a couple more of mine since I got rid of the chrome side R badges. So consider them updated photos. Since mine are vinyl now I guess I'm technically completely debadged instead of just the rear.

 

That's a sweet lookin whip Vance. I too am looking at some cross drilled/slotted rotors along with some akebono brake pads because this dust thing is... well it's just annoying. Also, I just placed my order for some Niche Cirquit Rims (moving up from 18's to 19's)
amd some Nitto Invo tires too boot. After those arrive I'll tint the Passenger and driver windows and I've ordered a nice interior upgrade to give me additional wood grain around the Navigation/cd console as well as on the frame around the door hand and the overhead console that controls the garage opener and moon roof.

 

Thanks. Nice you'll have to post up some pics when you get the rims installed. I think the only cosmetic thing left that I will do besides getting my front bumper resprayed is some springs. Other than that its time to move to the engine but thats where it starts getting expensive so things will move a little slower in that dept.
See you at the meet next month.

 

Some pictures of my STR.
