Yikes, you can invest in a tune and exhaust for way less.

I did the skirts and the front spoiler on mine in a bit of satin from memory. Actually the skirt was a PITA because of the shape and I did it in two sections. I told my missus it was to hide the dirt but really I just preferred the look with black which gave the car more of a waist than the body coloured ones. That has been on for 2 1/2 years now, no problems though the bottom of the front bit has been scraped a few times. I wouldnt try a whole car, too hard and not enough patience. I think you did a great job on that.

Any additional pictures as we have identical cars.

Hi - of the skirts or the front? Let me know what you want and I'll put it up. I wanted to wrap the silver vent things as well but my wife caught me and I was banned from wrapping anything else on her car.

The skirts, on the car ;-)

I was looking at the XE this afternoon to visualize the skirts and thought that the silver trim would look good instead of the black. Is anyone handy with photoshop?

Hi. These might help. It was actually harder to put on than I thought it might be but it stuck well and I think it gives the car a nice shape.

Cheers, if you have a go at it yourself, I used satin black instead of gloss. In the end I did it in two sections, joined just under the end of the driver's door as it was a bit more fiddly than I expected. A professional would get it done in one, for sure.
