There is a guy on E-Bay selling the chrome fender vents for about $75.00. I put them on my 2008 XK and they look GREAT!!!

At that price, probably chrome plated plastic with 3M adhesive to stick on over the existing factory trim. Not quite the same as the real thing.

They are the stick-on style indeed, but I was very impressed with the overall quality of the materials used and of course the price (less than 1/3rd of what my dealer wanted) AND they look maaavalous...
