So since getting the F type I have suffered this sickness I never had before of always trying to find any new mod/part to enhance the car's beauty and performance. I decided to start this thread (since Im bored) to showcase the mods I've been doing before and after (and instructions if possible), maybe some of you here would take ideas, inspiration, appreciate etc... etc...

So let's start with a picture of the original car as arrived:

So the first Mod I did was the vents. Changed to Gloss black vents:

Second Mod I had done was the alloys. Changed from 18 inch standards to the Storm Polished 20 inches. This made a huge change in my eyes

Looks good but could do with being lowered and some spacers on there now :)

I think you're heading in the right direction....so far :D

The wheels always make such a difference.

Oh no, I can't lower it or else I'm looking at scratching it all the time. Our roads suck and it barely goes into the basement garage just 1cm lower and it would scratch the whole bottom and front lip

I would lower it in a second if I wouldn't run into these problems.

I've done loads of other mods. Just trying to find time to take the pics

I changed all vents to black and the front grille as well. With red it looks amazing.

Your only issue is the chrome around the windows, but maybe that can be wrapped.

The wheels a great improvement

I actually like the chrome and im going to leave it. I was actually wondering about how chrome bonnet vents might look. It would certainly be unique.

I did at least 3 more mod i need to take pics of and post here later on

I have 4 or 5 other mods on the way. Just waiting for the post and probably will have to be after xmas now

Next i installed the blackvue front and rear dashcam. Great stuff but I would suggest going for the newer versions with Wifi since always having to unhook it to remove the sd card so you can see the videos is quite tedious after time due to the limited space of the ftype
