Default 2001 XK8 hood (bonnet) liner

Looking for a replacement hood liner for my 2001 XK8. Mice got into the original. Any suggestions?

Forum member Gonzo (Gonzales Duque) produced replacement liners manufactured with aircraft firewall material for a number of Jaguar models. Several members purchased and we have had good reports of the quality and longevity.

Sadly Gonzo died in 2014 but his daughter carries on the business.

I sent her a PM about your question and have received a reply. Although the XK8 is not in the current range, it can be custom made if you send the original to use as a pattern. For further details, please contact Duque Hoodliner Productions by email:

Gonzo was a great guy. His S-Type hood liners were always spot-on. I'm sure his daughter does great work as well....

PLEASE keep us all posted on this, I am also going to need a new hood liner soon. I didn't realize his daughter took over, glad to see the legacy continues, his work was A+
