Only one leaper? How passé. :p

I thought two or three were de riguer these days. Well, according to our friends down under, that is.

Pretty mean-looking car there Phil.

Oh, I have lots of leapers and badges ordered in weak moments!! All in a box, stored away!! Believe me, for the opinions I've gotten from the one, I'd not dare add another. Lol.
I will say, I wouldn't add a leaper to a facelift model, but the older style looks ok with it IMO. And mine is from S-design in Germany. It's made to fit the bonnet better and has a large plinth base. It's also a bit larger than the factory leaper. (Now adamesh sells them. But it's expensive either company)

Some great work there Phil, I was also reading your seats thread and really like what you've done, particularly the new wrap on the veneer.

The bonnet Leaper divides opinion and I can see that if you'd been locked in a cupboard for 50 years then you'd probably think it looked totally wrong without one. I've just grown used to seeing the XF with a clean bonnet which is why I think to me it looks better without. Same reason could be applied to the E-Type which I also think wouldn't suit a bonnet Leaper.

Lunar is such a fantastic colour with the Black Pack theme and you've got an awesome looking XF there :gt-happyup:
