Yeah im basically looking for something to do big areas, like complete bumpers. I already have one of the touch-up bottles from the dealer which is OK for small scratches.
Its going to be very difficult on a white XK especially since you're not as OCD about it as I am, not criticzing but it if you were to paint your bumpers, they would be a diffrerent color than your whole XK, unless you did a complete clay, compound buff polish and wax with it. Also a cheaper way to go is buy compound and do it yourself. If you want Ill walk you thru the steps, it would save you $$$ but take some time and elbow grease.

Yeah i wax it twice a year but never took clay bar or compound to it. When i get steal bumpers I've also thought about not trying to match them perfectly and going with more of a matte; something easier to touch up.
If you plan on swapping bumpers, dont waste the $$$ on paint, if you were to clay and.or compound bumpers you'd notice a world of difference. Its pretty easy to do and will bring out the white again. If you were to do the whole XK, it would look brand new just be prepared to spend a better half of a day putting some TLC and elbow grease. If you want Ill do a write up with video on the steps to show how to do it, again its pretty easy just time consuming.
When it comes to the matte bumpers, I think itd look great and you have it easier being a white XK the matte bumpers will fit right on it.
