Body (Aero) Kit on XKR

[rpgk]

Hi guys
Am new to the jaguar forum on PH have previously been spending my time on a couple of the other marques. I am now however close to purchasing an XKR 2007 57, portfolio. My question is regarding the bodykit available on the xkr. the car i am looking at has had a fictory fitted bodykit put on it, and i was just wondering what everyone thought of these. so far i have been unable to actualy see the car or pictures of it (someone else is sourcing it for me), so what i was really wondering is if anyone knew of anywhere i could see some pictures of the bodykit or if anyone has had any experience of it. a bit concerned it might look like it has been Nova'd.
Does anyone have any experience of this??
Cheers

The BK that I am familiar with for the XKR is from Arden.

There shouldn't be a factory body kit for the XKR, the kit was only meant to be available for the XK and I don't see why they would put anything on a portfolio. I'd double check with them and go take a look, they could be talking rubbish...

I was also confused. The exterior styling upgrade is only available on the XK, never seen one on the R.

yeah bit confused now. Have been told that it is definitley a body kit that has been factory fitted. Apparently to 'copy' the look of the pending XK-RS ? And it is on a portfolio! So have just asked for some pictures to see what it it looks like.
