Hey guys, first and foremost I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Gonzalo and I am an owner of a 2009 XF SC. So far all I have done to it is add the Mina Exhaust and K&N air filters. I am not a huge fan of many add-ons to the exterior, but I would like to give my front end a more aggressive look. I haven't seen anyone post anything about a front lip/splitter anywhere, and the only two that I have found online are ones offered by Mina Gallery, and by Sarona. What do you all think about the front lip that Sarona offers? Is is too cheesy/tacky/ugly? My car is black and the pictures they have posted on their website is Custom Jaguar XF Sedan Rear Add-on Lip (2009 - 2011) - $590.00 (Part #JG-001-RA) is white and has a bunch of other bullshit on the car that I DO NOT like at all.

Any help on how to make my front end more aggressive looking would be greatly appreciated! Does anyone know where to find a simple front end lip/splitter. I would obviously get it painted and professionally installed.

Thanks!

 

I added the Mina Gallery carbon fiber front splitters. It gives the car a very nice understated aggressiveness on the front that it needed. Super easy to install with automotive grade double sided tape. I had not seen the Sarona kit. The only part of it that I personally like are the side skirts but everything else may be more to your taste.

 

Thank you for the suggestions about the Mina front splitters. I noticed that they look really nice on the XFR, but the picture that they have posted on the XF seems like it does't do much. Do you think that it looks better in person? Do you have any pictures of your front splitters that you could share?

Also...if I do not add anything to my car (i.e. side skirts, etc.) and simply add on the sarona front lip, do you think that it would look weird? Meaning do you think that it would look as if it was lower than the rest of the body. The front end of the 09 XF SC angles up a bit, so maybe it wouldn't. I don't know. Tough decision.

 

This sort of shows them. They are really understated so if you want something more noticeable they probably aren't for you. I think they add perfectly to the look of the front of the car...almost like fangs haha

 

Sweet ride bro! XFR is definitely my next move. Coincidentally I just got a raise at work today...so it's time to save up, haha.

But thanks for the pics! They definitely helped in making my decision. I just got off the phone with Chris at Mina an got a pair of front splitters expedited to me. I'm installing my Mina exhaust this weekend and will be adding the splitters as well. Keep an eye out for some pics so that you can let me know what you think.

 

Awesome! You are welcome bro, I have the Mina exhaust too and I love it. I had the exhaust tips powdercoated gloss black too, they look mean:




By the way most of my family lives up your way, my brother lives in Arlington too. We were just up there for one of my favorite DJs who came from LA to spin in Adams Morgan. Loved growing up in that area but glad I don't live there anymore, too much traffic and too expensive :P
