Hey brother, its really what ever you like that counts, not us. I'm not so much a purist so mod it however you'd like. It does look great from the back which is how most people are going to see ya anyway, right?
You might consider red colored brake calipers and 'clear' front side lights. That would make it stand out a bit.

Mad? No. Surprised? Yes.
It’s new, it’s different, it takes time for the brain to process. It’s kind of like redheads. They surprise you. You’re so focused on the hair, that you don’t know if you like the whole combination or not.

i been putting it off,but I have been looking for some red brake calipers.That will really set the entire look on fire if I come across those to replace the black Calipers with.I appreciate the advice though man cause all I want is to show the true beauty of a Jaguar XK series and show people why I love my XKR so much for how it looks

i gotta give yall better pictures from how i got it parked on the hill.i'll try to get pics in a parking lot somewhere











As promised,more pics of the Jag.I'll try to get more pics during the day cause I always leave the house only late in the evenings and i know it's inconvenient taking pics at night since you can't see the full detail of the car that well

You have tremendous passion and are bold. Its the most valuable thing you own and rich for it. You feel like the millionaire that buys a GTR with red top and stands apart.
Dont worry about someone having to put you on an ignore list cause you posted a picture of your trophy. They are telling you they need something more than their prozac to ignore things around them.
And notice, they dont have any pictures to post of their trophy. They are here to take yours away from you.

And yes you being genuine about the dirt road you live on is what did not frame the picture right for most. Hey, I would rather spend a whole day having a fun on your driveway.

yeahhhhh that's the exact look I was going for and I think it's awesome.It's like you rarely see a black car with a red top unless it came from a very expensive Foreign brand or it's a limited/very special edition cause I seen it on 1 of these new Porches before and I just fell inlove with the look.Plus thanks I really needed that and it's the best motivational speech i've ever heard in my life that you gave me and I do sincerely appreciate it.But I hope the looks of my Jag gives the Automakers of Jaguar ideas to reinvent and put back in production of a newer Version of the XK.i'll wait a while to buy 1 after people lease or buy them and trade them in before they depreciate,so I can make it my treasure like I did this 1 cause I can only afford a Jag like this only if it's used.it would take 3 years of saving every dollar I could to afford buying 1 of these new

Chrome, Gold,black, or white are the only colors I would go for on the wheels depending on what color my car is.Idk why but I can't do any other colors outside of that

Yes, desperately jealous. Especially of that 5k a month you were talking about earlier. Literally melted my panties.

I hope that was sarcasm. Yes, I'm sure it was. Maybe a or something should have been included.
Methinks that someone who has $5k a month shouldn't talk smart when many people in this forum have $40k disposable a month or more.
This is why the " Ignore " function is in this forum. Too bad it doesn't hide the Quotes though.

I figured the underwear comment was a good enough indicator lol. I know there's always a bigger fish and bragging is always asking for that fish to eat you, hence why i don't talk money. I'm big into reddit circle jerks, and was doing a little light hearted return trolling.

Yeah but judging by how frustrated some people are, all the time, I dont think some are getting any.
