Ok thanks.
It is trully very expensive for what you get.

What you get is proper carbon fibre stuff which, I imagine, is not cheap to get to this shape. Still expensive though.

Quote from: "Liz"
Quote from: "reddi"oh well there goes that idea, the vents i got are cracked and broke in places and dont fit right, they are loose and move about.

anyone selling any more vents,?? or know the price of brand new ones?

Are you referring to the ones you purchased from me? s:shock: :shock: s:shock:
And if they are loose, it sounds as though you haven't got the clips in place properly.

yeah they ones, nah its not the clips its the plastic on the vent that is cracked so not holding it properly.

my new ones should be here in this week or so, cant wait to finally get some new vents on

Tem · January 4, 2006, 15:55

Didn't you get new ones? They should come with the clips.

Anonymous · January 4, 2006, 16:29

well i now have silver side vents on and they look great in my opinion.

ill get some pics up 2mo to see what you guys think,

thanks liz for suggesting silver s:)

s:)

not a major thing but one of the vents at the bottom kinda bends out from the car, doesnt stay flush like the top, is there any super strong tape or maybe a kinda glue i could just touch into the inside of vent and hold against car till bonds?

i'd be careful glueing the vents to the bodywork as you will need to remove them to get to the drains from time to time

Anonymous · January 9, 2006, 09:09

yeah i was thinking of that. any strong car body type tape you can think of then, only wanting to put a bit on the very bottom to hold that in

thats a typical issue when they aren't quite in correctly.

Anonymous · January 9, 2006, 09:20

thats what i thought buddy but ive checked and they diffinetly in correctly. its not that its sticking miles out or any thing, just comes out a bit further than body of car,

markiii · January 9, 2006, 09:54

trust me you need to get teh bottom lip in first or it will do this.

Anonymous · January 9, 2006, 10:45

so you rekon take it back out then put the bottom clip in first?

markiii · January 9, 2006, 10:50

yep

Anonymous · January 9, 2006, 10:51

ok ill give that a go today and update you 2mo

I can confirm this. If the lower lug is not correctly hooked over the bodywork, the vent looks as though it's fitted okay, but just stands a little proud at the bottom. Reddi, did you see my response to your query on mr2oc?

i did bud and it was very helpful, thanks very much.

Liz · January 9, 2006, 13:32

You told me that they were broken s:?: :?: s:?: Oh well, glad that they look ok.

Anonymous · January 9, 2006, 13:35

you were right and they now sitting perfectly fluch with car, pics to follow in 10mins.

Liz - good news, a friend of mines is into arts and crafts and making stuff etc and melted the platic bits that were cracked and added a little glue and now everything seems perfect, not pretty on the backside but who cares as you never see that s:o

s:o )
