Exclamation The XJ220 you really want...

This is my modded Jaguar XJ220. I felt the interior was a little to cheery so I painted most of it black and chrome. The rear grill is now chrome and the rims are from a Murcielago. The back rims were very hard to get in and when I finally got it working the back was too low so I just dropped the front some. it kinda looks like a lowrider. Enjoy!

Not bad, but the rear wheels aren't wide enough.

Well yes the Murcielago rear tires are in fact shallower than the original Jaguar tires. However, before putting this guy together I checked the depth of the jags rims and the outside edge matches where the new rims are. They may look like they are too far in but they're about right. This finding actually made my job much harder since I was going to just put the Murcielago axle in. I had to break the axle to get the rims in far enough.

Looks very nice. I really like the low to ground look of the car.

Very nice mod, not too much, just enough to bring it out.

Ditch those rims, and replace it with those Dub City 20"s!
Would match so much with that rear part, looks unique
