Check this out. A company in Huntington Beach CA builds an after market, inconspicuous frontend skid plates for Aston Martins. ( Chin Splitter - Aston Martin Chin Guards | Aston Martin Chin Splitter | Aston Martin Skid Plate ). Looks like a really nice product made from plasma cut aluminum, then powder coated, and attached with mechanical fasteners not double back tape. I contacted the manufacturer asking if there was any thought or effort to develop similar product lines for Jaguar XK's / F Types? Not at this time was their response. Still worth a look. Happy Thursday everyone.

 

My local AM - Lotus dealer is a reseller of this or a similar product. Priced similar to the site as well. They have had a good amount of sales from it. Also covers up any pre-existing marks.
