I'm liking the side skirts too, but I've got an XJL.

They are made for both SWB and LWB XJR so are available if you can find them.

Great pics. I am in the middle of modding my XJL Supercharged as well. I've installed the metal shift paddles and leather clad shifter. I also have the black gloss grill package with the red growler, aerodynamic front splitter and rear deck-lid spoiler, a Mina exhaust, and looking to buy the red brake calipers. Plan to install them by the summer time.

Hello,

Well now I think it will be the last on this mod XJ ... this was a year that I was looking for the famous Maroa rims 20 "of the Ultimate series
Usually not a fan of black wheels, especially on a black car, then I think it will not hurt him because there are large polished surfaces.

I took the opportunity to dust off the passage of Pirelli PZero because really not convinced by the Dunlop !!

The best looking XJ wheels yet. There are 2 ultimate XJs for sale locally and they are not moving. Both 2013 models with less than 800 miles. The dealer better sell them before the new body style comes out... They are asking $113,000.00 US dollars.

Really nice and classy mods. Planning to do some mods myself too. Luckily i allready have 20" rims, and carbon trim inside, also the double exhaust tips and in my cause chrome mirrors instead of matte aluminium. So i guess i allready have the most expensive mods done. i'm really into the trunk spoiler and front splitter of the speed package.


I also like your xjr sideskirts, but for me it's not worth the $1000. It's originally not on the sport and speed package right?


what do you think about red brake calipers on your XJ? The sport&Speed package has them, as well as the xjr. I really like them and it's on my mod list too.


Anyway, my compliments for your classy mods!

Good look. I see you are in Frankfurt. I'm located in Mannheim. I'm heading back up to Arden to have my car retuned on the 14th. Did you get yours tuned or just the daytime running lamps?

I got the XJR red calipers and mine and I love them. They just raise the bar on the whole look of the car if you have sport and speed pack installed. Because I got them after the fact I did end up paying about 5K. But it's worth it to me. Now if I can get ahold of those 2016 headlights.

The side skirts where originally for the XJR both SWB and LWB. So look up for XJR LWB and you should be able to find them.

Hello 08292-

Thank you again for providing the part numbers for the XJL side skirts.

I must admit, of all the tasteful modifications on Nicodep's XJ, my favorite is the side skirts. After a few glasses of wine in the evening, I'm almost ready to purchase them, but then in the morning when I'm totally sober, (and my usual conservative self about spending money) I decide not to do so.

Hmm, what to do?

My motto....if it looks good, feels good and captures your mind, go for it as the agony after spending the money on the jaguar is peanuts, compared to the thrill of improving a beautiful car!! GO, Go, Go, (automotive NY Giants Cheer) :-)

Only you must decide what to do, if you're really likes and want it, install and enjoy!

Gents,

I cant wait to get home (Currently Working Overseas) and do the MODS to my XJL. I will def post my pics once I'm done. Also, I'm 31 years old and I have had my XKR and XJL for the last two years and not to be a snob but I can't help to not notice the stares that I get from other drivers when I'm in my cats. Love it.

I'm sure you guys get it as well.
