I am planning to tidy up my X-Type later in the year - the o/s mirror cover is damaged and the n/s/f door really needs replacing. At the same time I was thinking of fitting a relatively discrete rear spoiler. When driving my other car I find it much easier to reverse into a small space as the spoiler indicates where the rear of the vehicle is much more precisely. Mine is a model manufactured before reversing sensors became the norm - retro fitting seems more bother than it is worth.

Can anybody recommend a rear spoiler that would be visible when reversing but not look like a boy-racer>

The guy in Britain does a really good job of showing and explaining work he does on his Jaguar X. Here is one on retro fitting reverse sensors. It's really not too hard.


If you search YouTube under his name, he has alot of fixes he's done. Very thorough.
