If your audiologist drives a Jaguar you'll have a lot to talk about.

Soundwave, love the caramel and dark blue. Not often seen in a 5.0L XKR. Good scoop buying that!

Did your headlights come with the black background like that or? Looks good.

Default So who can spot the differences in my car's evolution?

I suspect only other obsessively observant XK owners will notice the difference, but more on this in this thread:

Not biased or anything though...

Those rockers literally rock Simon! Nice job!

Not sure if you have considered clear side markers, but I bet they would really look good on your all-silver car. My 2 cents


I made the change on my dark shade of blue and am sure glad I did.

Those do look good! Never really noticed them before, but clear definitely looks a little more current. I saw your old thread on these and placed an order on SNG Barratt. They're currently closed so don't know if they'll say there's a restriction on getting them in the US. Did you have to order yours from a UK supplier?

+1 clear Side Markers, I pulled up some old threat about them but cannot locate any current links. I'll keep looking but this is one cosmetic change I think is crisp.

There are really simple to use products out there that is actually cheap also... make a mold of your current yellow markers and use the provided catalyzed product and make your own markers whatever color you wish. Add some black or grey, have smoked markers. Want green? Purple? Whatever you want............

Yes, I did. It was a few years ago so I will see if I still have the info.

Side markers are referred to as reflectors in the UK. Here is my original order form with each part number (left and right) for 2012+ model years XKR.

I had to go to a UK Jaguar dealer to get them as they would not order them for me at local Jag dealers.

Those were how they came. The only things I did was the system in the back, powdercoat the tires, and tint the windows.
