Actually, there are probably a number of "front ends" or even just grills for the xB that could be based on other vehicle's more or less 'trademarked' look.

How 'bout an "xB Hum V" ...

I dig it too - the curved fenders make it look like the back of a phantom.... that would be so cool to see rolling around town... l0l.... a dude here in queens (new york) has an excursion with an 8" lift and has that entire phantom nose+grill+hood on it! it looks crazyyyy!

I kinda like it. The chopped top is definitely better than the first rendition.

Would look a lot better if it was Bentley Continental GT or Flying Spur style.

i think what kills it are those huge foglights. take out the foglights and you should be fine.

With the chop, there's definitely something aesthetically appealing to it.

I don't care what anyone says I like that ish! lol I'm diggin it because it's way different. Now cost benefit ratio is kinda out there. But I'm sure you could find a knock off version of that grill somewhere. I mean they make them for Cadillac.

Egadz...Not feeling it, but if you're all for the look, then go for it! It will definitely stand out in the crowd.

Such a lame idea.

It's funny, if you actually ordered the RR Phantom's headlights, that alone will cost more than what the xB is worth. Not to mention the price of the real grill and front end.

I've seen someone put it on an old domestic muscle car, had the actual Phatom headlights and grill put on and it came out to some ridiculous price of more than 50K for the parts. I can't even remember the exact price but it was something crazy.

if you stretched the front just a bit more, say whatever would equal 6 inches in real life, you would get the curves from the RR fenders a little better, also if your doing that conversion I'd see about doing a bit of widening modifying on the xb's quarters just to help compliment the front end, theres only one other person (that I know of) that has done a conversion he did a mercedes (box suv whatever it is) front clip conversion on his xb
