Has anyoneupgraded there 2004-06 XJbumper cover and grillto a 2008 XJcover & grill.... and how hard was it.

While waiting an eternity to get my self adjusting lights adjusted, I talked to a guy at the dealership who said it should work. I spentover an hourin the showroom sizing the matter up and decided that it would work. I'm just waiting until I rear end someone(lightly..of course)and actually need the parts to proceed. Keep in mind that if you replace the front cover, you should also replace the rear cover too as the new covers front and rear no longer have the chrome trim. It does look good though.

 

So the guy at the dealer is saying it is a direct swap?

 

Do you guys know if you'd be able to get the side vents to fit on too?

 

how much for the conversion ? front bumper, grill, rear bumper, ect.

 

The fenders arestamped or indentedfor the side vents. So unless you want to half *** it, you would have to change the fenders. Maybe a metel fabrication shop couldpress an indention for the vents. I believe the vents are powered also. I didn't do much checking for the vents. I'm pretty sure the whole conversion wouldn't be cheap unless an insured drunk driver backed into you.Isn't there a member on this forum that can sell OEM parts pretty cheap? Maybe give a price on the whole package.

 

i would be intrested to know what the pricing for the conversion might would be
