Just purchased the XJ genuine factory lip spoiler for trunk. Will post pics when installed. I actually purchased direct from the Jaguar factory in UK and they are sending me two for a great deal. So if anyone is interested in the other, I may have an extra one for you.

 

Wouldn't it be great is we knew what XJ model you were driving so we all could responded with some knowledge and succinct answers. Maybe a short description in your signature would be great.

 

This forum thread is for XJ 351 model...2010-current XJs

 

Model Year: 201?
Engine: V6 Supercharged, V8 Naturally Aspirated, V8 Supercharged
Model: Base XJ, Portfolio, Supercharged, SuperSport, XJR
AWD or not
Any other options that may be relevant.


All of these are X351 models but are configured differently. V8 supercharged and up have different suspensions as does the XJR.


So when one is trying to discuss handling there is a difference based on your particular X351, that's all I'm trying to say.

who did you use?

It finally got warm enough today to install my Mina Gallery spoiler. It was very easy to do, as follows:
Step 1. Lay the spoiler on the trunk lid and align it with equal gaps on both sides.
Step 2. Put a piece of masking tape on the top edge of the spoiler and another piece of masking tape on the trunk lid adjacent to the tape on the spoiler, so you can mark both pieces of tape as an alignment guide for installing the spoiler on the trunk.
Step 3. The spoiler attaches to the trunk lid with double-sided 1/2" 3M auto trim tape. Prep the trunk lid and spoiler surfaces to remove all wax/grease and then wipe with 3M adhesion primer to insure a good bond. Put 2 rows of tape across the bottom of the upper inside of the spoiler and carefully align the marks on the masking tape.
Step 4. Press down and you're done!

I like--thanks for sharing the "how to do".

 

I say go for the other option. 22" wheels. These big cars deserve wheels that are classy and close that wheel well gap up a bit.

 

Those wheels look great! What brand are they?

 

whatever you do, do not put a leaper on the bonnet. saw one at the repair shop yesterday, it wasn't pretty. i would advise against lip spoiler also for aesthetic reasons.

 

+1 against spoiler and the hood ornament. Our cars look so beautiful without them IMHO. My list of mods
1. Rotary shift mod (modstickers.com)
2. Subwoofer Addition (rear factory sub removal)
3. XPEL Paint protection film
4. MGP Caliper Covers (calipercovers.com)
5. LED interior and exterior lights
6. Logo door light projector
7. Pedal Covers and Dead Pedal R (minagallery.com)
8. Ofcourse rims if you have the cash to spend for a good set that's staggered.
I already have illumination package but if not it looks great! a must have IMHO.

 

Stuart, looks great, nice install. I have a NA 5.0 and can't let it go. I would like the Stainless exhaust. Anyone add that?

 

I have the Stainless Steele Tailpipe Tips.

 

Appreciate that this post is a few years old however, what did you use for the exhaust tips?

 

i would say the side skirts are mod #1 in my book.

I got a pulley and a tune. Everything else on my XJR-L is perfect, would not change a thing except perhaps black out the chrome.
