FINALLY! The kit that's been sitting around for 4 months is getting installed!
I ordered the arden style kit from Mina Gallery and Chris gave me a fantastic deal! I also added the hood power bulged.
We've run into several issues with installation tho, but we're sorting them out as best we can.
As for the front lower spoiler, we had a very hard time getting the lip to fit over the air intake opening so after several attempts, chop chop, off came the curled lip. I hated it anyway!!

Here we're just dry fitting for a test.

 

Here's another view of nose. Notice were loosing the badge on nose and I'm moving it to grille. Using the large plinth badge from Adamesh. It came with the new growler in black and silver so I popped it apart (the latest gen growlers are in three pieces so the black background can be separated from the growler face and outer ring) and painted the background red to match my wheel centers and side markers.

Also painting the new inset grille gloss black as well.

 

Red growler. It's a bit dark but in person it matches wheels perfectly.

 

Cool!

 

Front bumper final finish

 

Rocker panels on.

 

Nice work!

 

I'm getting Jaguar lust!

 

Somebody intervene!!
I just ordered my wheel spacers, ordering the Mina gallery exhaust, and my MGP custom red calipers covers are on the way. Trying to find someone locally that can customize my headliner as well. I want black ultra suede but not having any luck. Found one shop that's possibly willing to try but "trying" makes me nervous. Thinking about red coolant hoses from paragon.

 

Oh, this is where I started. Basic factory 2002 xk8

 

I'll never sleep tonight! We installed the front nose with the lower spoiler finally! Had the fog lights tinted and actually had to paint part of the lense since the tint wouldn't wrap perfectly. Looks amazing! I think I'm opting not to use the lower spoiler grille. It took away from the inset mesh we painted gloss black. Tomorrow we install the rear bumper and he's done! Only waiting for my red MGP caliper covers with custom JAGUAR logo etched in black and my wheel spacers.

 

We finished the kit install!!!! Here's the only pic I could get before my phone went dead. Ugh!!
I'll be out tomorrow getting some SAWEET photos!!
Now all that's left are the caliper covers and wheel spacers. Oh, and lowering springs.
I have an idea for the rear boot chrome plinth. Think I'm swapping for the old body color style, relocate the boot button underneath it and spacing the 2013
J A G U A R letters across the black plinth.
