SeanPeterLynch,

As you probably know, Lister modified their cars in a number of ways rather than just fit "bodykits". The wide-body model involves welded wide wings etc. And the Le Mans model is even more extreme with the wide body and a different bonnet / front end.

Is there a specific part that you're after? Lister doesn't exist in its original enterprise. However there are a number of restoration companies in the UK who have restored Lister models and may be able to give you some advice if you're seeking a specific item. One of these companies is the well-known KWE who recently did a full rebuild on the Lister 7 litre cabriolet.

Captain Jaguar's Cathouse sells the Lister body kit. Their main website is currently down, but you can contact them through their Ebay store: items in store on eBay!. The hi-rise spoiler is separate from the kit. Neither is currently listed in their Ebay store, but trust me—they sell them.

Jagspares International sells the Lister body kit in the UK (bottom of p. 1 here: Jag Spares International - XJS 1975-1996 - Body and Fittings). I don't think they sell the spoiler. They also sell the TWR/Jaguarsport kit, which is essentially an evolution of the Lister kit.

No one currently sells the original Lister XJS lo-rise spoiler. I have one, but I've yet to mold it.

Also in the UK is Hyper Transformations, which sell various body kits, most of which look to be modified versions of the Lister kit: GALLERY - HYPER TRANSFORMATIONS LTD - Jaguar repair service in Oxford.- Jaguar bodywork specialists in Oxford - Car servicing for Jaguars in Oxford - Jaguar Services in Oxford - Jaguar Specialists in Oxford - Jaguar Cars in Oxford - Jaguar car repair. See especially the kit on the #31 car pictured. The side sills are exact clones of the Lister's. Several bumper variations are offered. The ones pictured on the #31 car began as Lister bumpers, but were modified to wrap around the stock bumpers instead of sit/attach beneath them. But both versions have always been available, in addition to an extreme set of bumpers and fenders that mimic'ed the later wide-body Listers, as you can see pictured on the hi-res photos of the car at the top of that gallery page.

Hope that helps.

Hi. Did you ever look up a company in our area that could do a mold and duplicate our low rise Lister spoiler in polyeurothane? BTW. I have found another Lister 5 spd manual V12 that is for sale.

No, I have never looked into replicating the lo-rise spoiler. I don't see that there's been enough demand to warrant the cost. I just don't see that many people expressing interest in it. It will likley soon be attached to my car (if I can ever get it to the painting stage).
