VZ SS side vents upgrade

LKNXTC · #1 26-10-2006, 05:05 PM

I been thinking about upgrading to the vents for while now and I finally ended up getting it done. The stripe section on vents are meant to be chrome but I had mine color matched to the body, as the chrome makes it look a bit out of place.

very nice car and paint job.

Not really a fan of the mesh in the front bar though. It would probably look better behind the 2 bottom plastic rails bars at the bottom of the front bar. Just my 2c worth!!!

All up the costs came to just under $400.00 with the vents, repeaters, looms, panel work and spray painting. Most places I went to said you needed to buy the genuine vz ss front guards with the inserted vents, which cost $450.00 each so with fitting and painting it would have easily cost more than a $1000.00 all up.

Hey there,

did you cut the guard to fit the vent your self or did you have the panelbeater do it?

If you do cut the guard your self I guess a jigsaw with a metal cutting blade would do it fine , sand down any rough edges, prime any bare metal a few times then is it a matter of clipping the vents in? or is there some other way there fastened in?
