Hi all
Both side vents on my XE have started to peel. Anyone know a reputable website I could purchase a set of replacement side vents? I've attached a picture of the ones that I currently have on my XE.
I've found some on the web which are ridiculously priced - they don't have to be genuine Jaguar parts - just ones that fit and look the same as below.
Thanks in advance

Ebay is usually good place.
I have mine from R-Sport for sale. Glossblack as in picture if you don't find new ones. Asking 50euros + shipping.

You could just repaint them yourself, rather than full replacement.

Re: Exterior Side Vent Replacements
This is not something I'd be comfortable undertaking myself
Do you know, is it difficult to remove these vents and replace?

Easy to remove. Those are in two parts. Top and bottom. Use trim tool to pop up (only slightly from corner and do not lift much) from front to about R-letter from top and bottom. Then slide to back.
When installing push bottom and top together and push to in.

Re: Exterior Side Vent Replacements
As eski said they are easy, with care, to remove, so whether you decide to repaint or replace you can do it yourself.
My only other thought on reflection is that you say these are peeling, I can't see in the picture where this peeling is, my understanding is that the Jaguar Gloss Black side vents are black plastic so should not be peeling, unless they are not black originally and have been painted by a previous owner.

Look at the “R” in the Rsport lettering. It took me a while to realise where the paint was peeling.

Re: Exterior Side Vent Replacements
I will post a picture of my own later today. The picture I posted above was for reference of the ones I want to purchase.
I believe mine were originally chrome and either painted or wrapped.
