If you want to replace the plastic front grille of the Jaguar X Type with a chrome one, there is no need to go to the workshop at all. With a battery-powered screwdriver, we can easily do the whole job ourselves. Here's how: open the hood, unscrew the pins that secure the grille to the hood at the bottom, then proceed to remove the locking pins of the grille from its frame and finally remove it from its seat.

At this point, using the opposite procedure to the one previously described, we proceed to mount and then install the new chrome grille on the car.
