Default Spoiler alert.

Picked up a spoiler from eBay for £80 delivered and have just finished painting it and fitting it to the XC.
All in it has cost me £106 including buying the paint.
It is not perfect but will do for the time being.

Looks the part that - very nice.
I have to admit, though, that I have never got in my XC and thought "damn, this car is just too aerodynamic"

I've got a spoiler on my XC70 and I do think it looks better.

I also have the Side Scuff Plates and with your coloured car they would stand out nicely. Maybe they should be your next project.

It adds at least another 25bhp though :-)

I have seen them for sale on ebay so will look into it. Next up will be getting a tint added to the rear 5 windows as the last 2 cars I owned had this and it also stops the kids complaining about thaving sun in their eyes.
