my 2 cents

Why cant a classic car be a GT car thats fun for sunday driving? You just defined the XJS lol.

How do you make a classic no longer a classic?? A heavily resto-modded 68 camaro is still a classic car.


The car you showed looks mean, it looks like it has twin turbos and breaths fire.
If you have a STOCK xjs thats pretty lame...Everyone will ask about it and you'll have to admit it doesn't even have 300hp. Thats fine and all if its stock but not even the TWR race cars looked that aggressive...

[QUOTE=fritzvis;729275]Hi Flint,

You're right, a car can definitely look like in the era he was born in. I don't want the car to look much younger, I just want it to look like I like it more and taste is a subjective matter. There is nothing wrong with the looks of an XJS, I loved them since I was 6 years old [/QUOTE

I love the no bumper look, "Classy"Mean!!
I want to take mine off now.

I really love the bumperless look (sorry purists). I know most want to keep a classic car in a original look but I want to give my own twist to it. I don't really want a classis car, but a nice GT car to have fun with on a sunny sunday.
I love the look of that car and I've been searching all over the web to find these bumpers, can anyone help me with that? A good supplier for custom bumper parts?
what did they do to make the front end look like this..??? someone tell me please.
