My hood vents are Jaguar OEM, some sort of a plasticized chrome. I'm the 3rd owner and they were on the car when I bought it.

One of them has started to get all wavy and is starting to look shoddy. Anyone know if the OEM product is still available?

I do see that Mina has a chrome louvre that is a different design, as well as a carbon fiber that appears to be along the OEM. If I can't find the OEM chromy plastic I may spring for one of theirs.

Cheers, Will

 

This mob appears to sell the OEM ones: http://www.partswebsite.com/jaguarpa...34001&fl_id=39
Probably unpainted though.

 

I think the chrome ones are aftermarket.

 

The dealer definitely sells the chrome ones. Look up the XF Accessory pdf brochure on google. Can't seem to paste the link correctly on my phone.

 

I think this is it:
Hood Louvres (pair)
C2P20035XXX

 

Thank you. Those are not the ones I have... although I may try those.

The ones I have are OEM. I've seen them in an old accessory catalogue. I think they were in the 2010 XF and XK catalogues... They look just like the stock ones, except instead of being color matched are plasticized chrome (similar to the carbon fiber ones in more current catalogues).

Cheers, Will

Looks like the outer ring on that piece is grey primer that needs to be color matched to the body... Can't imagine I could have that done for cheaper than $80, which makes it more than I want to spend...
