$600 for the spoiler plus $275 for shipping, ouch! You can get a new one for less I think. Also did you try SNG, they have them from time to time.

Yes the price is steep but might be worth a chance of clicking the make offer button and offer lower... you never know until you ask...

The 3 piece set in a link is fibergalss material which means it won't be flexible for proper fitment, unless their kit fits perfectly which I doubt I would not risk it. I bought one from Mina and it's better looking because the center piece is an actual carbon fiber but the sides are fiberglass and fit like crap so had to return the kit

Yes I did. Have to buy the entire boot lid to get it. Too much hassle and $$$ for that one. I think maybe I'll design and build my own speed-activated moveable spoiler.

"Do you offer international shipping?
This seller doesn't offer international shipping."

I've seen a couple like this, Texas Traveler also sent me a link that had it.
... BUTTTTTTT..... since you say you've gotten something from them, I guess it doesn't hurt to try.
I'll re-attack the one TT sent also.

EDIT:
Waiting for sellers to reply!

The feedback I've had from UK sellers is that shipping internationally is usually a hassle, between deadbeat bidders, shipping charge miscalculations and/or high costs and issues with duties and taxes. However I have purchased from several of these "sellers" with no issue as they consider it case by case such as the quote TT received from Steve @ Cotswold for US delivery.

By the way, that is where I purchased my geniune OEM R-S 3-piece and carbon camera plinth from at significant savings over US prices. He also sells full R-S conversion kits, including the full facelift headlamps, etc for the 2011 and earlier X150s.

I also understand his FRP replica kit is top notch with perfect fitment BUT I have no personal experience to back that up.

Here's the rear XKR-S diffuser kit from Steve at Cotswold Jaguar, I've just finished fitting it.

It's the fibre glass mold kit. I took my time over fettling, spraying and fitting it, but I'm really pleased with the outcome, as my lad said... "It looks factory". Took me a few hours over a few weeks to get it so I was happy with it, no doubt I could do it a lot quicker , but I was being particularly careful to get it right first time and figuring out the best way to screw and affix the molded shapes to the standard car as cleanly and strongly as I could. Managed to get the fit to only require 3M VHB tape, no resin or bonding requried.

Also fitted a set of H&R spacers (20mm front, 15mm rear) to make the most of the new rear end. Equally pleased with them as well.
