2008 Front clip- VDP
Can you be a wee bit more specific, please !! Or is a 'clip' something very well known in the USA, (I'm resident in the UK, as you can see).
Wellsford Jag, the front clip is the described series of parts that are the entire front half of the car in advance of the windshield to the front bumper and all parts underneath to connect the carr to the frame. A U.S. based term used on this side of the pond. K-
I got the car this AM and only need a fender, hood, and bumper cover (The cross beam in front and two dash air bags.) Whew! Is Coventry West still the best in your opinion since I do not need the full "clip?"

When you asked for a front clip, I though you wanted from windshield forward.
Coventry West is proud of their parts but I bet they had a full clip available
Ebaymotors was my best source for body parts when I fixed my 05 XJR. I replaced the front bumper cover with one from a 08/09 (X358).
The hood and I feel the fender will work from the 04-07 (X350) models.
What I found to be different is the bumper supports that mount to the fenders and hold the cover. I used the 04 though 07 supports and made a bracket from 1" aluminum channel that extend it on the bottom for the 08 cover.
You need to source a crash manual to verify the fender. The side marker lights on a 04-07 (x350) are different from what is on the 08/09 (x358).
Its the small parts that are going to nickel and dime you.
Good luck with your hunt.
