I recently bought a wrecked jaguar xkr after my recent deployment. I'm having a little bit of trouble finding a new hood for cheaper and i was also wondering if the 05' front bumper would fit on my 03'? I like the meaner look of the 05' with the lower lip. if not is there another way?

 

Finding a decent hood for a reasonable price seems to be fairly difficult. Junk you can find all day long.

The newer bumper can be installed, the biggest differences are the fender liners and undertray. If you can get them from the same car as the bumper that's the easiest. Otherwise you can make filler pieces for the fender liners and the undertray isn't too expensive, even new.

Here's a thread where another member did the change and took lots of pictures:
