Default Chipped wheel center caps replaced

Jaguar initially denied my warranty claim. I forwarded a link fom the UK board with some pointed commentary of my own stating that wheel center caps ought not to chip whether due to flying stones or failed coating. Four new caps are now mine, covered by warranty.

Jaguar needs to address this goofy defect. The wheels don't chip from flying stones so neither should the center caps.

Fabricated especially to Jaguar's specification in Italy, presumably from the finest chrome plastic money can buy.

Can you post a link to that that UK forum as well as some more details on how you went about doing this? My wheel center caps are
chipped as well.

Thanks. Took a look and it seems most dealers did it for free ---I will mention it next time I'm in for service...need rear sunshade motor replaced, also under warranty, as well.
