RE: Is a body kit off of Xp worthed?

JaguarXP has better than stock since they are stretched a half inch lower.(Same Duplication)

I purchased the front Fascia lip a month ago and got it painted professionally for $380.00 to match my Adriatic Blue Metallic paint.

Here is a larger picture of my profile pic.
(Keep in mind the car sits 1.4 inches lower because it has Eibach springs also)

BAAAMMM!!! Im happy

and I'm going to buy the rest of the spoiler package from them this Friday.

Oh and they come primed - only gota get it painted.

Hey so i noticed thatit says

X-Type Borla Exhaust System (3.0) 2002 model does that mean it only fits 2002's on the XP site or does it fit the 05-06 modle?

Thanks KUrtyMAc!

Yeah it looks ok from the side but you can see the lowered differeance in the front lip vs. the side skirts.

I only did it this way since its a litte easier in payments by buying it spearate. You've gota remember the paint cost too. It adds up!

$285 Dollars dude! - With Free 5 Day Shipping! No tax or Shippiung its free on this~

Trust me....I hope you did the 5day standard.. I wanted to rush it and because they are big packages.. it will cost you and arm and leg for that.

I did expereance a shippment to wrong address issue.

JaguarXp.com may not have a proper e-commere cart and a newbie website. But they have good deals and hard to find stuff makes up for it

So on XP its free? ok i think i might do that one piece at a time, this way its not a grand all in 1 shot. Also if the items are for 2002s will they fit my car fine, like the exaust?

My Bad! It cost me $21.00 dollars ground. Just looked at reciept.

I still think its worth it. Changes the looks dramatically.

Arden is expensive. And I think this looks as good or even better.

They are Fiberglass though... not polyurathane. Thats what the dealership gives you.

I'll go with the fiberglass for less

Yeah that is true. That's the only downfall to Fiberglass.

It sits 5 inces 1/8th of ground. I'm careful when parking it... I usually back in.

If you drive slow over ramps speed bumbs no problems. Had it on the car for 3 weeks now.

I really take good care of this car. My car payments are over so I'm fixing it up now

ahah true, well im going to be buying parts of the body kit then, but is there any other body kits besides that type i only see the same type and thats the one on XP. Also i think the borla exhaust might be out of the question due to my warrenty.

ok, so now my dad is telling me that i shouldnt get the body kit cause its going to make it look like a pimp mobile and that its going to break off and its bound to happen and that its a classy car not ment to be hooked up like that and its going to bring down resail. What do you guys think?

RE: Is a body kit off of Xp worthed?

I hate when peopel mention resale... think about this... you bought the car used, meaning if it treats you well you will drive it atleast another 3-5 years. Realistically what do you think the car will be worth in 3-5 years? not much I can tell you that. Also its only a lip, you can always have it removed, providing you dont crack it over a speed bump or while parking. I say go for it, enjoy the lip while it lasts.
