Default Carbon fibre side gills

Does anyone make carbon fibre side gills for the XK. Did a bit of an inter web search but couldn't find anything?

Biggriff,

If you can't find them in genuine CF, consider removing yours and having them hydrographic coated in carbon fiber film. You'll be hard pressed to tell the difference. See: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...-cover-129949/ I'm sure there are hydrographic shops in the UK. Let us know what you decide to do. And while you're at it, consider doing your engine appearance cover. I get lots of compliments on mine.

If this was helpful, please click at the bottom right of this post.

Thanks. I've done quite a bit of the film coating, but as I have the vents and mirrors in proper carbon I wanted to keep it original.

If I can't find any I will get some made.
