Plastidipped the grill and added the new R.
#21
Not to hi-jack this thread, but I've been wanting to black out the grill, too. Onebadass motivated me to get out the can of Bumper Black that I used to black out my chrome window trim, and, voila! The cool thing about doing something like this is you can change it back to the stock look in a matter of minutes (chrome paint). I like the "R" emblem, too - gotta get me one!

Oversea and you pick them Arden stuff up like hot buns......
Really like the front bumper ,nice for unlimited autobahn speed,not really necessary in my country where the speed limit is about 70mph ,but Germany is only a stone throw away from Here ...
Are you gonna lower it with Arden springs also ,the kit needs that and put bigger wheels on it?

Greetings DJ-Roy! I really like the front spoiler as well. No, it isn't necessary here in Oklahoma (USA) where the speed limit is 75mph, either, but it looks so good! I also really like the side skirts. I think they clean up the lower part of the car so that the jacking points, etc., are not visible. I don't have plans to lower it or go to bigger wheels, but, hey, who knows?
Before putting the kit it on the car,
Can you take the 4 pieces to a shop and have them mold and then made in carbon ?
There are many shops who can make molds and make them in any fabric...
I take one set of you for sure ,.

Black-out rear badges and...
I decided to follow XJR Prototype's lead and black-out the chrome surround on the rear badges. I got the 'Jaguar" badge done today and will do the other this week. I also applied electrical tape to the chrome around the headlights on one side to get an idea of what they would look like blacked-out. What do you think?
