That's the way they fit on XKs so that the top on the leaper is horizontal to the ground.
As for the car, I don't know what makes people do such awful things to such beautiful cars.

Some people just don't appreciate beauty enough to leave it alone.

I believe if the owners mailbox were in the picture the last name thereon might be Hornet. And for me that would explain everything.

Why, who lives in the neighborhood? Besides, what does ones neighbors have to do with defacing a beautiful car? Finally, while I modified cars in my youth, just as I'm modifying my XKR now, I never did anything this extreme or ugly.

I wonder if someday they'll be made into street rods with chromed superchargers and big ole slicks on the back. Especially a chopped coupe all metal flake, chrome and flames. And some kid will say !!COOOOOOL!!

This is just another case of more money then good taste. While I am for making your car stand out, I am also for doing it with good taste.

Just because you throw chrome and paint at a car, doesn't mean it will look good. I too did some crazy stuff when I was younger but I learned the difference between loud and ugly verses stand out because it just looked so good. There is a difference and just because you may have fun defacing the Mona leisa it will not make it look better. Ugly is ugly no matter how much fun or money it was to make it that way.

The leaper looks like that because he is trying to commit suicide and jump off the hood so he won't be seen by anyone who knows him.

I just noticed, this guy is only a few miles up the road from me. OMG.
