Hi All,
Has anyone fitted the Mina/Adamesh type all chrome bonnet/hood vents to replace the factory XKR 2006 onwards factory standard version, if so can anyone post photos?
Thanks,
James.

You might want to consider having them plated by a reputable company in the UK. You will be more pleased with having the originals plated, than buying aftermarketOriginally Posted by JW1

If you cant find a company I would be more than happy to give you the phone and address of a company in Chicago or San Diego. Cost in Chicago is $400. Cost in Cali is $500. Wait time on both locales is about 4 weeks
The vents are made of plastic and are easily destroyed when buffing or plating. For this reason you should only use a plating company that specializes in this type of plating and not a vendor.. Good luck

Tried them... didn't like them. I now have the chromed option from Jaguar. Much prettier.

Yes I did. Might have the originals painted that flat silver colour like the side events, I just for fun.Originally Posted by JW1
Thanks Guy, I assume you went for the type that require the outer edge spraying to match the bodywork?
