Default Nice Wheels and Side Skirt

I thought the wheels and side skirt looked pretty nice on this lowered car. What you think?

Whereas I think that looks okay, I think forum member, GhostriderXKR08's XKR has a great look. I am pretty sure the ground effects RS kit is from Mina Galleries, if I'm not mistaken, and I think it's simple, elegant, but "mean" looking. (see first pictures). I also think this diffuser/bumper offered on ebay is great looking as well (second picture).

I usually don't care for black wheels on black cars but, this one looks very nice with the bright perimeter and bolt accents. Love the lowered looks but, hesitating to lower mine for several reasons; camber issues or the fact that you probably need special low-profile lifts just to get under the car.

tberg is correct as mine is the RS which is the replica body kit of the 2008 XKR-S, 2010-11 Black Pack, 2010 XKR75 and XKR175. I actually like the 2010+ XKRS side skirts but I don't think it'll look right with the RS diffusor and front splitter that I have.

Sherbercars,
Below is the listing for the rear bumper/diffuser on ebay. It is shown in two colors with either black mesh or stainless mesh.
Jaguar XK XKR XKR s Rear Bumper | eBay

GhostriderXKR08,
I should have a 2010 XKR coupe within the next few weeks, and yours is simply gorgeous, the one I would want to emulate when I get mine. The ebay rear bumper/diffuser from the above listing, I think is very attractive (although the exhaust tips shown don't fit the cutouts properly, so I would stick to the stock round ones), however, besides being very expensive compared to the Mina rear that you've used, how do you know the quality of that whole rear piece/bumper/diffuser. It could be cheap plastic, and I'm not going to Chicago to look it over. I do think it gives a Maserati GT look to the rear end.

I'll be visiting Mina in a very short time thanks to you.
