Default body kit for 2004 XJ

greetings. i read on a thread regarding the mesh grill inserts from Mina Galleries, anf found that owners were pretty happy with results. i've been planninng of getting their mesh grills, but i also noted that there is a body kit available too. has anyone had any experience with it? or any other vendor that has a tasteful spoiler and side skirt kit ? i tried to check under "arden"and TWR" but no luck. i just want a slightly more agressive look to the front end of the 2004 XJ, more akin to the one on a 2008-2009 XJ.
as an aside, i was able to successfully graft the front spoiler from an XJ40 to my '83 XJ6 series III, looks so integrated that it looks like it came from the factory with it on!
thank you in advance, william

I have a Daimler front grille & rear plinth to fit your car. They are the fluted style that were used on earlier cars but not in the US after 2004. It is a nice subtle update.

Thank you jaxkr and jahummer for the part and picture. It IS a very nice grill surround, but I'm wanting to go a shade more subtle with the chrome so I'm thinking of actually painting my grill surround body color, and go with the Mina mesh grill because I'm also getting the lower mesh part too. The 2009 "mesh" is much larger it seems to me. Thanks though for the links...very informative! Wm
