Stuff to swap (possibly)

Took a look at a 2000 Limited this afternoon. I think I'm probably going to buy it, since it has pretty much everything I want. However, it also has some stuff I'd like to swap out.

- Chrome grille. I'm not a big fan of chrome, so would like to go to body colour (kind of a burgundy).

- Chrome rear license plate light holder. Same deal as above.

- Wood trim. Still not sure where I stand on this one, but I'm thinking it may get the heave-ho in favour of the standard plastic.

Anyway, all this obviously hinges on my actually buying it. I'd just like to know if there's any interest in any of the above items. My preference would be to deal with someone locally, but I'm not necessarily opposed to shipping.
 
I am interested in the chrome grill. Shipping would not be a problem either as I will probably down that way in the next few weeks and could pick it up. Just contact me if you get the XJ to make arrangements.

OK, I got the XJ :) Here's the thing, though: I have no problem with meeting up to save you the shipping, but if I pull the grille I really need to have one in body colour to replace it since this is my DD. I'm going to pull the VIP report later today and get the actual paint name and code, which should help in that department. Let me know if this works for you and we can figure something out. Oh, and this would be the grille plus the headlight surrounds (really should've been clearer on that to begin with, sorry), so pretty much a cheek-to-cheek swap on the front.

BTW, for anyone else who may have been interested in the rear chrome licence plate light it's also available, same terms apply. I'm still deciding if I can live with the fake wood dash centre, but if it does end up going I'd like to swap for one in agate or black.
 
OOPS, missed the color.
As much as I would like the chrome grill, I don't think you would want my white grill. So I guess I will have to pass on the swap.
Congratulations though on finding another XJ. Happy wheeling.

No worries. My bad for not mentioning the colour sooner: for the benefit of anyone else who might be running across this, it's 'Sienna Pearl Coat' (paint code PU7) according to the VIP report. I'm definitely still interested in a swap.

Thanks :) I actually took it out on its maiden mud voyage today - the Michelins that are on it now suck for off-road use (love their road tires, but damned if the French have a clue about off-roading); otherwise it did well. Looks like it'll be a good rig to build up.
