You should be able too. I think I bought my chrome side louvers at the dealer.

I think I paid around $200 but this was a few years ago so not 100% sure.
Here is the instructions for removal: http://www.ownerinfo.jaguar.com/extf...96336416293/XK Fender Louvre - C2P 19943 ENG.pdf
Found my original post on how I removed them: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/s...96&postcount=6
I would ask Dan, aka. "nalleyjagparts" , for pricing....good guy to deal with and good pricing for OEM parts from him. He's also a Forum Sponsor.

how come your about to remove the chrome fender louvers? I'm not much of a fan of chrome but damn I really thing the chrome complements your car perfect. BTW, I think your ride is very tastefully done &Brake cals look awesome. what % is ur tint? seems kinda dark...but i like. tx troopers would be on my ride like flies on poop, if my tint looked like that. keep up the good work.

I also recently had the calipers painted copper...just something different as my previous cars has always been painted red. Tint is 35% all around.

^^^Ill be attempting this mod next week...I was just wondering what u meant by " after putting the side marker in place" was under the impression that its a plug & play type thing. I'm much more a visual learner then a reading learner. if u could provide any photos of what ur speaking of Id appreciate it, thanks guys in advance for any help provided.

i'm having trouble figuring out how to get the fender louvers i want. my wife's '07 XK is black with aluminum (not chrome) 20" sentas so i'm looking for aluminum louvres to match them. i DON'T want chrome, but more than one dealer i've called said that the c2p12120 (~$170) is chrome, even tho the accessories catalog says "polished aluminum" and appears to be aluminum/non-chrome per the picture. see page 10:
http://www.jaguar.com/content/market...s_20070611.pdf
another dealer said that what i want is c2p8583 and c2p8584 which are the individual louvres from an XKR (not sold as a kit so you have to by them separately). however, there seems to be some question as to whether those are chrome vs aluminum also (can any XKR ppl weight in? are your factory louvres chrome or not aluminum?).
yet another dealer said the only true aluminum louvres are from a portfolio edition and require a portfolio VIN and since they are larger than the standard louvers you'd need to replace the whole fender...and they cost $1600 b/c they're actually aluminum...all of which is ridiculous.
here are some other things i've found

The '07-'09 XKR side louvers are grey plastic. Similar look/color to the window trim. The Portfolio is polished aluminum.
The photo in this accessories link is the grey plastic (not polished aluminum) on the '07-'09 XKR.
These two look exactly like the same pic of the above accessories link.....'07-'09 XKR grey plastic louvers
Can't tell without a pic.....
This looks like the chrome accessories but it's the 2010+ louvers as it doesn't have the side blinkers intigrated into the louvers.
Looks like the exact same pic as the chrome above...possibly Jaguar uses the same pic for the chrome and polished aluminum. This one also looks like the 2010+ Louver as it eliminates the side blinker above the louver.
You can also ask Dan at Nalley for the exact ones you're looking for....he can advise which ones are available.

yep, dan at nalley (which is local for me here in ATL!) hooked me up. you guys are right, what i'm after is the oem XKR gray louvres (plastic apparently, but that's fine). thx for the breakdown. it's frustrating b/c jaguar's descriptions and pictures aren't entirely straightforward. oh well, they're on their way now. plus dan gave me the 15% discount and free shipping, too! i also picked up a set of the race pedals. i think they'll look really good with the black/aluminum interior. thx again.

just installed the louvres and they look great! i'll post pics once the car is washed and have good lighting. the install was just as you guys had described: pop out the old ones, pop in the new ones. however, i was good (read: lucky ) enough to avoid breaking all but one of the tabs off the old ones (there are 6 on each) so, if on the off chance i want to go back to black, i can re-use them.
the pedals require drilling, which equals time/effort, so my wife will have to wait on those.
thx again for all your help!
