Default Wheel Arch Spats
Anyone know a part number for XKR wheel arch spats? Better yet, a source for purchase other than just Jaguar?

My summer Senta wheel off-set is wrong for this MY thus the tires stick out a bit far, though it does look good. So I thought spats might help keep things cleaner back there.

You're welcome. Please post pics! I'm also curious as to how they would look fitted in reverse on the forward edge of the fenders, front and rear, to help with wheel turbulence.

Those spats look identical to the ones on my XKR, I thought they were standard, I don't recall seeing an X150 without them

I think they were only fitted as standard to cars that left the factory with 20" wheels. There are a number of XK's on EBAY without them, pics of 2 examples attached.

That makes sense as mine doesn't have them. Made or 'rubber' and held on with 3M tape and fixing clips eh?

I don't have them either, hope you show some pics with them on the car.
Might buy them if they look good.

The window sticker showed my car came with 20” Sentas, but as a $5k option so that could be why mine didn’t come with the spats?

Mine has 'em stock, Mandrake's 2010 doesn't, I think he has 19" wheels though.

My XKR with the 20" wheels has spats but the one with 19" wheels doesn't. Could'st be they only got stuck on the 20" variants.

Could be that some of the 20 inch wheels take 295 width instead of 285 and used to conform with UK regulations.

My 2012 came with 20's and it also has the spats. I also have the 285's.

Anyone willing to make a tracing of one and mark a length measurement? I have material, a roll of 3M tape and maybe even some 'fixing clips'.

Be careful where the spats are fitted. The spats have fold over rubber tabs to keep the steel clips away from the aluminium of the rear quarter panel, but no tabs where the clips fit round the edge of the plastic bumper. At some point in the past, my car had the spats fitted between 10 and 2 o’clock with steel clips on the aluminium, resulting in nasty corrosion patches.
The spats also have a wee kink where the body and bumper are not perfectly flush, so they do fit best as designed.
