I think you got lucky with this one. I found the vendor on the UK eBay site, but he had no additional listing for the pack you got. I'll see if I can write a note directly to them and ask if they have more. Thank you!

For anyone who is interested, I did manage to contact the eBay vendor and he was very responsive to my email. At the present, he doesn't have any of the complete packages, but is in the process of requisitioning more of them. He said it would be a few weeks before he had them for shipment.

His eBay handle is "jag_sticker" and can be found on the UK eBay site using the search bar. If you have any interest in replacing any of your engine bay stickers, contact him.

Shout out to frenchfairplaydriver for making me aware of this service. Thank you!

I'm also on this forum but usually lurk in the XJS section. I had a UK owner who asked me for these so I got a couple of extra sets done...now all sold, but will get a handful redone if there is some interest.

I can reproduce almost any decal..if I don't already have the design I can redraw it in no time. So if you have any special requests...

Regards
David

Superb! I can also provide replacements for the Emissions and brake fluid decal if required.

That's almost obscene! How dare you have an engine bay as clean as that! I sit in shame. Good thing I don't open the bonnet often.

Seriously, great work and it looks fantastic.

Do you ever drive the vehicle?

It is interesting to see this thread. I bought the other set that 'Jag-sticker' had for sale.

I remember David from my old Jaguar World forum days where he was also a member - and remember him licencing these from Jaguar cars. I bought a brake fluid reservoir sticker from him a couple of years ago, and it of superb quality and accuracy. The under bonnet/hood stickers which I bought recently are equally good though I haven't actually used them yet. They really are indistinguishable from the originals in font, colour and in the materials used. I am very pleased with them and can recommend them without reservation. They are fully suitable for concours in my opinion. They are indistinguishable from the originals.

This really is a superb looking car, Frenchfairplaydriver.

I can't comment on the placement of the other stickers because these things vary by model year, but the firing order sticker should be on the top of the air cleaner, rather than on the chromed exhaust manifold cover. I think you will have to take it off before you drive the car/run the engine, since it won't be heat proof and will burn where it is.

A magnificent looking car otherwise!

These are now listed on Ebay again. It was probably only a matter of time until someone asked about the black variations on these decals. Yes - I can produce them but the part numbers won't be the same. Can anyone post some pictures of the black variations showing the part numbers? Thanks
