Default XKRS (X150) Convertible

Hi all
Does anyone know what the bonnet vent design should be for the above. My car has central silvered supercharged logo strips over meshed base with black surrounds however all the reference pictures I can see have fully painted (body colour matching) vents with the supercharged logo to the side and a horizontal bar in the middle of the vent
Mine is the Italian racing red car and the french blue is to show the alternative that seems to be the norm
Thanks in advance for any information

My car vent

Jaguar offers(ed) several different designs for the bonnet vents. The two you show were offered by Jaguar dealers. I have vents similar to the first ones you show on my XKR. The only difference being they are all chrome or SS.

I have both. Had the optional “premium” ones painted to match the car, as the originals came.

Are the premium vents only for the US market? I've never seen them on on Euro or Asia Pacific market.
