Default New mods on 03 Jag STR

I recently had a set of the Arden sport mirrors installed on the car along with a rear roof spoiler.
Both pieces were painted body color and I also had the side front and rear markerspainted body color.
Here are a few pics of the car with the new mods......

I haven't put the car on a dyno after the mods. I still need to finish the custom intake and then I will dyno the car.

I purchased the mirrors from German Motoring in South Florida. They can import any product that Arden sells and also install them.

hey bro, what were some of the prices for your parts? I am kind of interested in the mirrrors. Do they need to be match painted and how hard are they to install? also, what is the reason for painting the side markers?

just acces www.arden.de and choose the English version of the page,than choose Jaguar and you'll see all the prices and pictures of their products. And you will notice the difference between prices( Europe vs U.S) something is rotten in the Kingdom)

The mirrors were expensive.You need to have a shop put them on for you. They came unfinished and not assembled.
I painted the side markers the color of the car because I did not like the amber and red color. At night the markers do light up with the correct stock color.

They will be for sale once I get the new wheels. They are custom made and will take about three weeks for delivery.
I had a 2002 S-Type Sport and I did purchase a set of the STR wheels. They fit without a problem.
Here is a pic of the 02 S-type Sport with the STR wheels mounted....

Your car is banging. You have put in alot of aftermarket upgrades and it shows. Are you in a car club?I lilke the mirrors, but it sounds like I won't the price, nor the fact that you have get them painted & installed. I can't justice that $$ for the buck. Any idea on the price for the DVD/ICE upgrade? From that link that you provided.

I already insatelled an 55W hid didkit for the headlights and I'm going toswitch the fogs into HID's, do you catch anyheat from the cops for have your set up?
