2009 XF Carbon side vents and headlight lids
Hello,
Just a few days ago i bought my white 09 XF and instantly wanted to replace all the chrome on the car with carbon fiber. Ive been able to find pretty much everything that i have been looking for but i have not been able to find the side vents in carbon fiber (but i have seen them in pictures) and i also have not been able to find the headlight lids in carbon fiber. Ive seen the ones on mina but they do not seem to be the ones that go all the way around the headlights. Any help or suggestions on where to find them would be greatly appreciated.

I think that Jag sell the cf vents, at least they did for the XK. They would be expensive though, the cf bonnet vents were about $1,000 here. I wrapped the bonnet and brake vents in 3M cf wrap, it looks very nice. The side vents are easy to do. I did it on the basis that if I liked it enough after a while I'd spring for the real thing, but it looks good enough and you cant tell its wrap unless you look really close, so I wouldnt bother throwing more money at it.

Chris at Mina Gallery has the side vents and a lot of other carbon details. I'm ordering the rear carbon defuser next week.

And how long does it usually take for your order to come in after youve placed it from mina?

Piece of carbon fiber side vent lost on freeway
On a much needed road trip this past weekend, the lower half of my right fender vent/louver fell off and is lost. It was the Mina carbon fiber louver. I have tried to contact them to see if I can get a replacement piece, but have not heard back, and their site no longer lists them.
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement piece?
