Hummm? What will that puppy will go for?
I didn't know there was a "Final 50" for the E Types too? I've never heard it mention.

Similar to the Dynamic R model, which is now the only XKR model available over here. Except that doesn't have the GT hood.

what kind of rear wing? Can't see in the picture. Just a trunk lip or a real wing? The one thing that sticks out like a sore thumb. It will depricate just like all the others nobody pays extra for a special edition Jag.

Get a hot-rod shop to punch some louvres into a second-hand XK (not XKR) hood. Even with getting it painted, bound to cost less than a GT hood.

I just talked to SNG and the price isn't that bad.. I'm going to order one, I'm sick of custom work not getting completed correctly.

My office is now full of XKR parts LOL

Think it will be a Speed Pack tail-flip - if it had a proper wing, it'd be visible. I've seen a shot from a slightly more side-on angle, and the wing still isn't visible.

If handy with a Plasma cutter and MIG/Tig, this item number in Ebay, may be of interest? 181121196848
Happy Trails.....
