Pretty much anywhere. Google them, they are out there in abundance. eBay has both dealer and aftermarket ones. Go through the dealers for the part number and then google that for the best price. That's how I've been getting stuff for mine.

I do see them pop up on Ebay from time time. They are ABS plastic that are supposed to fit over the existing louvers. I can't vouch for the quality but that might be the way to go rather than trying to replace the existing covers which would mean wrestling with attachents / nuts on the inside of the fenders. Let us know what you find.

I was looking at mirror parts the other night and they popped up on the Jaguar parts searches for one of the dealer's sites I was in, Miami maybe. The curse is sometimes if your model doesn't support the part, the part number isn't listed.

For me this xk does not need that Autozone fake chrome nonsense...the car looks perfect just as it is.

To each their own. The first XK I drove was an XKR that had the chrome gills, and bright upper and lower front grills.
I didn't find it attractive. Didn't buy the car, mainly due to other things wrong with it, but the bright work didn't help its appeal.

To each their own, really. I even did not know first that my chrome parts did not originally belong to car. I actually like them. Not sure about back lights, but I may put the LED ones there some day anyway.
