hasnt been to much happening with cars lately been quite broke and crook :lol: yesterday i did some work on the rear bar its still far from finished ive barely touched it. Today i decided to fix the cd player in the xf was quite annoying having to set it up everytime you start the car, cd player was easy to remove it was just wedged in the dash with folded cardboard under it ran a wire to the battery for the constant 12v now its working as it should i also screwed it into the dash.

in other news i have found a kit im very keen on made by fiber sports its a mmm kit its going to be around $1100 thats front and rear bars side skirts and door panels better start saving :P

im going to make a start on fitting the LTD interior and power window gear followed by stripping the engine bay welding up some unneeded holes and spraying it match the car.

The old Xf looks pretty clean with those rims on it. If you can afford to get another set like it, I think that's the way to go. Even if they are "only" 17's lol.

Cheers

I have a modded MMM rear bar on the back of my wagon.

Also one of my favourite kits as they are integrated to the car and don't look added on.

Cheers

Looks pretty tidy being black. How long has it lasted like that? I was thinking about dying parts of a set of seats black. Leather seats.

Cheers

door trims have been black since ive owned it dunno how long since they were done i only finished the dash today with satin black vinyl paint see how it goes i also died the dash matt black i need that to stay in there to cover up all the annoying cracks.

not sure how dying a set of seats would go? unless there some sort of leather dye you can get i imagine it would wear off rather quickly with the seats being used the most.
