Wow, that's a great price. Very tempting to grab a set, but the fitment seems a bit daunting. I did the tail lights with ease but this seems a bit more involved based on others who have attempted this. Do you have an idea of how you are going to do it? I would think changing the wiring harness inside the assembly may be the easiest. Keep us posted please and thank you!

Its one hell of a good Price , Some places want $1600. each. these are new never installed plus they are adaptive.
I am collecting parts to put a XKRS front on .But you could put on an xk/xkr front for a lot less money. you need to change the front fenders and the front bumper . fenders from William at Barrett are another good deal at $639 each. norm. over $ 800. Used XK Bumper approx $350/400 on ebay .I bought a XKRS like new for $400. you will also need grills and emblems. As for wireing it will be next year before I get to working on the car , just collecting parts when I see a good deal.

Did you get the bumper side ducts and carbon fiber splitter with that bumper? Those parts are pretty pricey for what they are, the ducts are around $500 each for left and right, the reflectors about $50 each, the undertray is different, the splitter is $3,000 from Jaguar. Then there is a bunch of misc brackets, bits and pieces.

Any idea how you are going to tackle the headlight wiring?

Sounds like an exciting project.

Absolutely!
If that was a project I was into, I'd jump on ordering a set myself, like today!

Maybe its just me, but I'm kind of fond of my 'bug eyes' and 'Taurus wings'.
Best of luck when you get to putting it all together, and yes, keep us posted, with pictures!

I have just received my Fenders today which fit all XK including XKS from Williem at Barrett. Brand new for a very good price . Thanks Williem .
Now I have to find a way to get the Bumper side Panels or ( Left & Right finish Panel ) as they are called (no 8 on the Sketch ) in parts , The Jag parts dealers will only sell to an, owner of a XKRS ,which I understand , Perhaps Someone on here Could Help . I have ordered the Splitter & Grills from Chris at Mina again at a very good price , as far as the wireing for the front Headlights . No I dont know as yet how to wire them , will worry about that at the time , Hopefully someone on here can help with that also. Thanks to all, For any help you can give . Bernie
