After the front of my 2014 XF Sportbrake bonnet was peppered with hail stone dents our local garage paint shop made a great job of repainting. I took the opportunity to have the front bumper repainted plus the lower side skirts that were suffering from pebble rash, not a difficult task to remove these body parts. Bought new chrome front grille and side blades via Aliexpress saving over £250 compared to Jag prices. Looking forward to getting it back together and also renovating the 20 inch wheels.

Looking lovely under the lights John, and will be gorgeous on your big cat ... looking as good as new with a fresh out of the show room touch which is bound to make you smile from ear to ear

Wow! Some story Ray and I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, one thing I'm sure about though is that I would say 'authority stinks' when it can be manipulated in such a way, and should go down the pan with other such c*ap when it plays dirty like that.

You though matey, are bright as a new pin and it has to be said ... one clever gent! 👏👏👏
