front fender vents..

Dan Parker · 10-23-2011, 09:42 AM

Nice! I was binge drinking....
Sorry to the OP for getting off topic.

I wonder how a gray or plain silver vinyl might look on AW. (A bit more subtle) Do you have the template or can this company sell it in different colors?

To the OP.. want fender vents....?? go and buy a Mitsubishi Evo... it has them...

It's got fake vents at the back, so why not at the front?

Hell, even M3's have a fake vent on the bonnet.

So much hate on this board; it's quite depressing sometimes.

I detect no hate. Sarcasm....maybe. We are friends on this board so some kidding comes naturally.

ORIGIN M. · 10-23-2011, 07:09 PM

Not bad at all. Thanks for sharing!

Fair enough, but without the use of a well placed winking smiley etc, its hard for less active members like myself, who don't know who the characters are, to see the real picture.

Interesting idea, doesn't seem to work real well with the sidemarkers IMHO.

already expressed my liking yet sort off agree with ESC_OFF; Perhaps a tad too much black going on?

@OP Trutchy
did you consider (have pictures of) using the OEM chrome sidemarkers?

It's a great concept. I think I'll end up doing the same, but I think the reason it looks wrong is not because of the black, but because the black is extended right to the edge of the gill. It's a shadow, don't forget. Darkness only appears where light cannot reach.

1. Was thinking exactly the same

Wondering about the result if carbon fibre film is used instead of black film.
