Hi Andy,
I am in the process of installing the Factory Accessory Hood Louvers with Chrome Strake (C2P20035xxx) on my SILVER 2010. As soon as I finish I will give you the one you are missing.
I should have them out by the end of next week, I am waiting to get back the trim rings( that are normally painted to match) from the electroplater since I wanted those to be chrome also.
It also may be just a wake up call from your XKR because it wants those cool vents also. Not really a bad deal for $227 for the pair and the quality is thru the roof compared to the originals.
Cheers,
Dave

Hi Andy,
You are very welcome, glad to help. Here is the best pic I could find that is close to our silver, appears to be lunar. It has the trim rings painted to match.
and one of a black XK..
For me the black grille part of the louver is just enough of a contrast and it ties in with my black pack grilles on my silver.
I will definitely post a pic when done.
You have a PM incoming.
Cheers,
Dave

My guess is that at some point in it's life someone removed those to install different ones and when they put it back to stock they broke some of the original clips. IIRC they are originally also stuck on with 2 sided tape as well as the clips.
Unless Andy is the original owner, then someone at the factory messed up.

No, I was heading North coming past the scene and my tackle bag was heading South in the old guys arms. Boat was on the back of my Ranchero and I needed to do a double ramp U turn to head South again. Bummer because it had a bunch of my nicer Rapala lures in it. $200 or so lost because I didn't strap them down before hitting the interstate to pick up a friend.

Without really thinking it through, DJ reached up and loosened the handle, which temporarily stopped the rattle. And then - in verrrrry slow motion - the entire driver's side glass T-Top began to rise above the passenger compartment, then flipped into the sixty MPH air stream and went tumbling gracefully through the air. It seemed like it hung there forever, but eventually T-Top met pavement, and the the glass exploded into a thousand tiny square shards. We turned around to retrieve the fallen cart part, which now consisted of the outer latch and a mutilated glass frame outline, and tossed it in the trunk.
My FAVORITE part of the story was DJ recanting the call back from his insurance agent: "Jim, I've looked at your entire policy front to back, and basically a piece of your car fell off ... and you're not covered for that."
