Can I ask..... Those that have fitted N400 sills to a standard V8V....

1. Do the front mudflaps still fit ??

2. Do the sills reduce the amount of spray etc that flicks up onto the sides of the car in wet weather??

Yep, you can still fit the mud flaps - mine has them.

And I've also noticed the N400 sills prevent a lot of the road rash on the rear arches that you get with the standard sills (which my previous coupe had).

Lunablack,

Where are you purchasing your N400 sills from?
I have yet to purchase mine.
HWM Aston in Surrey are selling at £650 per pair primed and ready for painting. (Incl VAT).
If you let me know when you want to buy we can try haggle a cheaper price on having two cars done?

At the risk of making this thread more erotic, I'm up for a 3 way - I'm just down the road from hwm and fancy new sills myself

Ok then chaps, lets just do a post here titled "Group buy N400 sills" to see who's interested, then we can approach HWM and/or jaguarastonparts and see what we can get.
Depending on locations maybe even get them painted/fitted as a group discount too?

I'm up for a group buy.....but I suspect Painting and fitting is just going to be to complicated...

A group buy that included delivery and the clear vinyl protection pieces would be cool thoughsmile
