I have an XK8 coupe with AGD color inerior. My driver's door panel and center console have seen better days. Where can I get replacement uphostery for them, preferably in the US?

Better to buy a second-hand door card and a top for the console.

How much do you want to spend? If the budget will stand it I'd check GAHH. They produce and sell top notch upholstery materials and kits to OEM specs and quality, but they're not cheap. If cost is driving the project then you would do better at one of the specialist breakers, Jaguar Heaven, Jagbits, et.

Agree with pstnbrke. But there's a guy on ebay who sells the leather for the AGD CENTER console. I too have AGD. I bought it thinking it was a screw in replacement. From your question it might be what you're looking for.

In case you didn't know ebay recognizes AGD in searches.

BTW its super easy to match your interior paint: oatmeal & antelope.

I bought a kit for the center console off Ebay a couple of years ago. Worked out pretty good. Here's one I just googled, but there are many more out there. This Company may also have plain material available for your door card.

Here's a youtube video for recovering the armrest.

AUTORESERVE in the UK. Great quality in their used parts selection and reasonably priced,,, so far. Then, PLAYGROUNDPAR on eBay... Great folks there as well. Then, NOMA (I think) and AUTO WORKS,,, also on eBay... There are tons of options - with just a general eBay search...

Default Interior Upholstery Kit

I purchased the kit for the center console off EBay. The color name was "ivory". Because of other issues taking priority, I have not installed this kit yet. The color seems to be a good match and just holding it next to the console, I think it will fit ok. the seller is located in Brownsville, TX. The price and delivery time were excellent. Seller's name is autotrimming.

Good luck.

Smile how bad is it??

My 1999 xk8 had similar appearance problems, which I corrected using SEM Colorcoat spray. It is paint specifically for vinyl and leather upholstery.
They have a matching color which is perfect on the cashmere.
Most any automotive paint shop will carry it or check with a good upholstery shop

Paul's Jaguar in Florida has excellent leather products. Ask for Jeremy. He is very helpful.
