Drexyl Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I remember seeing once, somewhere, a vent cover in aluminium that goes over the door vent (the one with the 'Z' in the centre when you open the door). Has anyone seen these/have them/know where to get them, or did I just dream it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I think you may be remembering that Tim (Lomoto) painted his. I did mine as well in silver to match the vent trims etc. See here - http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... highlight= It's the 6th photo.

They are gorgeous. Did you remove them and spray, or paint in place? I really like that effect, it makes something as mundane as opening the door a highlight. Thanks for showing those again. Also love the rest of the pics. Carleton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIXXERUK Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 nice touch jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 They just pop out so it's easy to spray them. Just remember to clean them with spirit beforehand to make sure the paint adheres. Glad you liked the pictures - Adam will be pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingbiscuit Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Got to be the most worthless mod ever. You only see them when you open the doors. Save your money.. .... or drive with the doors open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save your money.. .... or drive with the doors open It's all about aesthetics, doesn't matter if it's functional or not, it's simply a personal thing. You could argue the same for carbon fibre bits under the bonnet, they're only visible when you open it, doesn't stop people buying it though, does it? I like it, a very nice touch.

jim Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Save your money.. What money - a few pence for spray paint and a pleasant hour's work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
