But they only fit the Red models

The references are C2P5094 and C2P5095, these are the ones of the XK.

I added #2's thinking they would be a waste of time, however as I wanted to get rid of brake dust (Prior to fitting Porterfield pads), I found they worked well with the lower wishbone mounted air scoops fitted to the air, and diverted the dust away from the wheel area well.

These cars do attract crud....heavy stuff you have no chance, dust and light stuff seems to be 'divertable'.

Mine also has the rear wheel arch spats (#1's in the diagram) fitted as standard.

Good to know that the front spats (#2's) work well on diverting the dust and light stuff.

How are you finding those rather expensive Porterfield R4-S pads?......is there a big reduction in brake pad dust and any noticeable difference in braking performance, brake squeal, etc?

RPSN thanks for using my pictures

spats work brilliant on my car, spacers wise I'm running 15mm all round, lowered on Eibachs springs and 305 rears and 265 front , no issues.

@powerhouse

I’d saved your wheel spats pics from a while ago as they're a good example

.......Glad they work on your car with the wheel spacers, Eibachs and wider tyres.

Small number plate you have there or is it me?

Car looks great by the way.

Have had Eibach 15mm spacers all round, makes the stance look so much better

Correct small plate , not at all legal but the law doesn't seem to bother about it, their to busy looking at the car to bother with it although the odd one says it's small

@powerhouse

Even though it's very small, I don’t think I’ve seen a plate with that many digits?

Wonder if it’s small enough to avoid speed camera detection?
