where are all the aftermarket parts for the xk8? this is the only car that i have owned that i cant pull up thousands of aftermarket parts for on ebay. is it possible to customize on xk8 without spending more than the car is worth? so far ive seen 1 body kit that costs about $4000 and requires a lot of body work and painting and an exhaust system that costs around $2000. i havent seen any simple bolt on performance parts either. do i have to live in england to have these parts readily available? this is a very beautiful car but every single one looks exactly the same.

 

These are low volume cars compared to most, an order of magnitude fewer made per year than say a mustang, camaro or even a corvette. That said there are some jag places:

To name a few

 

These aren't cheap cars that need a lot of help. Also, as ccfultion said, these are really limited production cars.

Between 1995 and 2005 they produced a little more than 90,000 total XK's. Even Chevy producted 328,000 Corvettes during the same period. Mustang or Camero? Most single year production numbers total more than all the XK's produced.

 

I'll add Jaguar XK8 XJ8 XKR XJR X-TYPE S-TYPE Performance Parts Upgrades and Accessories. I have bought a number of things for both my XKR and my X-Type from them. There are also plenty of others; if you're looking for something specific, just post a question on the forum. For such a limited production car, there are really a great many aftermarket customizations that can be performed. I have dome many myself and I'm not done yet.
