Mesh grille
Any suggestions for a nice aftermarket mesh grille to fit a 04 XJ8? I've seen a few on E-bay and and I believe Jaguar XP offers one, although I cannot find it on their web-page, but I'd like to
see if anyone has any specific recommedations. Some pic's would be nice as well

So did you decide to order the Jaguar XP grills or will you go with another kind?

Yes, I plan to add the chrome mirrors and also whees. By the way, does anyone have any experience with the chrome covers versus the replacement chrome caps? The covers are only half as expensive as the replacement chrome. I've wondered whether the cheaper covers still looked decent and would be a good value for the money. Any input?

The mesh grills look great! I had trouble getting my stock upper grills out so I had to have the dealer install them. Were you able to install either set yourself? Also can the tow ring on the passenger side of the lower grill be accessed with the lower mesh in place? How hard is the lower piece to take on and off? Your center green caps.. do they merely install with 3M foam tape? I need some for my custom wheels I've ordered.

I just ordered a mesh grille insert kit from Welsh Enterprises for $105.95 + $9.95 FedEx.
It seems to be the best value out there.
I'll let you know.

They also had good prices on center caps.
