Thanks! Well, I drove out to find deserted roads to make this video - wouldn't do it downtown, not with just a single person. But the roads around here generally aren't too bad anyway. Plenty of almost empty mountain roads with insanely low speed limits....

It was very warm and sunny over the weekend despite the forecast of rain and cool temperatures. We took the XJS out to visit several of the local breweries instead of spring cleaning. I have the top torn off right now, so there wasn't an option if it did rain.

The Rubber Mat is only there to protect the Car Mat that protects another Car Mat, that protects the Original Jaguar Car Mat........

My XJ doesn't have any mats other than the carpet. My XJ-S has the original carpets (though they need replacing at the front) with originalrubber trays on top. The trays will be ditched though, as I don't intend on using the car in mucky conditions.

Btw. the only picture I took today was of my other Jag, as it has been crashed into... Even though it didn't even have a tranny in it to move! Front of the car is badly damaged. Probably written off... Yay!

I've seen similar ones on other threads from time to time. It's an interesting concept. What's the structure? Where does the water drain? How much cooler does your car run with them?

I also wonder where the water drains. I found vents that I would like to use from a Lumina Z34 but I doubt there is room for the pans that go below the vents.

-Prepping to remove rust for a respray. So far, only one of the tabs is too rusty to salvage.

Would be this picture, as my XJ-S is visible



Yes, it shows a VW but it is my current loaner until my XJ is sorted and appropriately the number plate is XJ as well (like mine )

Default fuel regulators

the look of the fuel pressure regulator were letting the side down a bit so I thought I would give them a new look with new decals the one in the picture is only a draft for the artwork and held down with spit, the new ones will be modern vinyl. when they arrive,
so I took a picture after.
