I actually like the 40mm way more.. I dont think it looks Mexiflush at all, just right. Crazy how much difference 15mm makes.

 

Jeremy, I think it's a huge improvement with the rear wheels tucked. I went back to some of your other pictures and after you pointed it out all I could see was the rear wheels outside the line of the car, looks far cleaner now.
Question for you, how hard would it be to get the emblem thats on the new grill? I think that might be the leaper replacement, looks a few CM larger than the wheels emblem correct? You still have the single most unique X on the planet.
There is a stainless steel place that I deal with here that has brushed SS mesh, I am thinking I might replace the upper and lowers with it, not as much bling but more striking than painted.

 

To my knowledge, it is just a factory grille emblem from an XF. They have screw mounts underneath, too. You can probably use one or both screws on the hood (rationale... I don't trust 3M mounting tape used exclusively on [heavy] hood emblems, flight and windscreen risk is too high with hood getting to running temp).

 

Me, too. But it isn't a slam dunk for me. Ride height differs from pictures to avoid rubbing and since the rears don't completely tuck, it looks like something from Scooby Doo at drive pressure (55psi or so), but I don't have that cool Scooby Doo acceleration sound effect when I speed up. I don't really post pictures at drive height because that with the super swamper 225/40/18's and monster truck 40mm-lower-than-stock gaps, it just looks like pure poo.

BTW: You've done it now though and called "mexiflush" - they will hunt you down now.
