Ok guys please don't get mad. Picking up my car tomorrow and am very excited. Ever since I was a kid I always liked to add thing to my cars no matter how cool they were already. Well this time Im going to have my first Jaguar and its a 2004 XKR, ( thing of beauty ) only thing I can't get past is the front bumper and grill. I really really want to put he newer front bumper and skirt to square off the front. Just my personal preference.

I know I know I should just enjoy it first before I start tampering with it, but it's just me. Another thing is the side fender marker on the newer ones I really love it.

Please don't say I should saved more money and bought a newer one because that is not the case now. If I could of afforded it I would of. I love the car stare at it all day but just want to make it my own. Customize it sort of speak.. Your help is appreciated.

 

Go to Paragon Design UK on the web...Tony has a lot of beautiful customized cars. He's known as XKRacer on the forum.

Good luck with the new acquisition.

 

I know what you mean. I bought mine accident damaged. Today it's in the body shop being repaired (front fender/ nose etc) but I am also losing the orange running lights whilst they are working this area.

I plan to lose the door strips and rear running lights as well.

Enjoy your new car.

 

Part of the fun of owning these cars is, as you say, "making it yours". That's why this is the Jaguar "Enthusiasts" forum. Also, I more than agree with you on the grille; it was one of the first mods I did. Enjoy yourself!

I'd be interested in your existing grill for my 98 XK8 if you are planning on selling it.

I'd also highly recommend Tony at Paragon Design , I had some work done by him and also some of my XKEC friends have used him 100% top notch ,
