does anyone have a good accessories online site to purchase from? I’m looking for tail light covers, brake light covers, grill emblem, etc and having a hard time locating.
Any assistance or leads would be great!
i did check the marketplace but no luck. Thank you!

Not my car but the emblem is what I’m looking for.
you!
I doubt David is going to have Series 2 V12 emblems, much less lenses for a 1973.
David specializes in Series 3 XJ and once in a blue moon he comes up with an older Series.
give it a try. If no cigar, try SNG Barrat USA or UK depending where you are.
also try David Manners in UK who is known to service the older Jaguar XJ Series and Daimlers.
Is your grille missing the V12 emblem or is the emblem just deteriorated from aging?
Lex, your car is very rare, most of us have series3 (1979 to 1987) Yours is a Series 1 and a v12 to boot. Mechanical parts are more or less similar for all three series but the trim parts are going to be a bit of a scavenger hunt.
SNG Barratt list a lot of the light lenses, but I think you'll struggle with the badge on the radiator grill. Series 1 XJ V12s are not commonplace at all nor the spares for them !! https://www.sngbarratt.com/English/#...ds=%5B16252%5D
Thank you all for taking time to provide some leads. I know I have my work cut out. I believe that’s why it was taking my dad so long to find and replace things. But I’m going to try. He would have wanted that.
mom sure I’ll be back with more questions. I wish I could contribute but perhaps I will as I learn more along this journey of mine.
