I don't see it working too well being wrapped around the headlights and there are no other gaps in the front end that those would fit into.
Well if you read the oldest comment, someone tried it on a Jaguar already and they say it looks "hot!!!!!!"

Attached is the best idea I could come up with for an X-Type (this is my '02 sport). It would involve removing the trim pieces on the bumper cover and drilling out spots to install LED's. Since LED's are actually very easy to wire and damn small, this is quite possible. For me, though, it still doesn't quite look right and I think it would only look close on a sport model because of the body colored trim pieces.
