No fault accident - Need rear bumper advice
Got some free bumper mods this afternoon (speed holes and weight reduction by paint removal). Nobody was hurt fortunately, it was a pretty low speed impact but the guy behind me never stopped when I was stopped at a stoplight.
The question I had for you guys: Does the 2012+ XF rear bumper with the diffuser panel fit on 2010-2011 XFs? Or can I get the OEM upper and lower ribbed valence to fit in the 2010 bumper?
Basically, can I get #10 and #12 to work with my car, and if so how so?
Thanks!

I actually found the old thread that described how to do it (basically get the Mina Gallery version or dremel new holes for the OEM version): https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...r-82135/page2/
I am still wondering though, would the entire 2012+ XFR bumper with the valence built in fit my car?

I've been staring at XFR rear ends for the last half hour (haha) and man, they look seriously similar. I spoke with a Jag parts department and although he couldn't confirm whether or not the '12+ would fit with no issues, he did say that the brackets and bolts that held it on for both years are identical.

2010:
Hopefully the body shop will have some idea

Wish I could help you answer them, I bought the Mina CF diffuser for $600 painted to match and shipped.
Now I want to update to 2012+ rear lights with the chrome center w boot lid lamps.
I thought its always the person behind yous' fault? Especially when you said he didn't stop quick enough when you were already at a full stop at a red light?

So I spoke with the body shop today and it looks like although the mounting brackets, quarter panels and lights are basically the same when it comes to fitment between a 2010-2011 and 2012+ XFR, a lot of other components (back up sensors, bumper beams, etc.) are completely different in the newer models. So unless you swapped out a lot of components behind the bumper cover they did not think it would be a "direct" fit if just swapping bumper covers.
Hoping to find some other reasonable way to add the diffuser without a ton of cost out of pocket.
