JAGUAR BODY SHOP LEWISVILLE, TX

The Marque On Pause

Something is happening to Jaguar that has never happened before: nothing. The F-Type ended production in June 2024 at Castle Bromwich — 87,731 cars across its life, the final one driven straight into Jaguar’s own heritage collection, closing seventy-five years of Jaguar sports cars in a single afternoon. Then, in late 2025, the last F-Pace rolled off the line at Solihull — the plant Jaguar shares with the Land Rover flagships — and current-era Jaguar production simply stopped. The brand is rebuilding itself as an electric ultra-luxury house; Jaguar has said its first new-era car, the Type 01 grand tourer, arrives in 2026. But between the last car built and the first car of the next chapter, there is a gap — and DFW’s Jaguars are living in it. Right now, every F-Pace on the tollway and every F-Type in a Flower Mound garage is all the Jaguar there is.

That pause rewrites what a repair means. A brand in full production treats its cars as replaceable; a brand on pause cannot — there is no successor to trade up to, no next-year’s-model waiting at the dealer. The owner of a Jaguar today isn’t just a driver; they’re a keeper, whether they chose the role or not — and the F-Type owners already know it, because the last of seventy-five years of sports cars is doing what last-of-the-line cars always do: turning collectible while it’s still parked in the driveway. So we repair for the keeping. Genuine parts, ordered now, while JLR’s supply chain runs strong — the smart moment to insist on factory panels is while the factory still stocks them deep. Factory procedures, followed exactly: Jaguar pioneered aluminum-intensive body structures years before the industry followed, and its aluminum discipline is non-negotiable — dedicated bay, aluminum-only tools, rivet-and-bond joins per JLR’s published TOPIx procedures, the same documentation system our Land Rover page works from, because the two badges share their engineering bloodline. And documentation, always — photographed teardowns, recorded procedures, a file that goes home with the car, because a keeper’s car with a clean repair history is worth more than one with a mystery.

The paint carries the family signature: one JLR paint system serves both badges. Jaguar’s Fuji White answers to NER, 2135, and 1AA — the same alias family the Land Rover side wears under its own code format — and Santorini Black answers to PAB and PEL; same paints, different badge, different code formats, which is exactly the kind of detail that separates a shop that matches paint from one that guesses. The sprayout card proves every mix before it touches a panel. The I-Pace — Jaguar’s early and genuinely pioneering EV — gets full high-voltage protocol before any structural work. Genuine parts get argued to the adjuster in writing under Texas Insurance Code §1952.301. And the honesty that holds it together: we are an independent Lewisville shop, not part of any Jaguar-approved network — scope stated plainly, every repair documented. One honest note: there’s no Jaguar pictured on this page, because we only publish our own customers’ cars — never stock photos — and the next cat that rolls out of our bay will be here.

Jaguar Paint, One Family System

One JLR paint system serves two badges — same paints, different code formats — plus a heritage palette that predates every modern code. The plate decides, the records confirm, the card proves.

Every finish gets the same spectrophotometer-and-sprayout discipline — read the actual panel, prove the mix on a card, blend until the cat looks untouched.

The Jaguar Repair, By The Book

Five steps, none optional — and on this marque, the first one asks which chapter the car belongs to:
