Thinking of gloss blk hood vents

Installsplus · 08-04-2014, 05:33 PM

Not sure how it will look. What do u guys think. Carbon fiber,gloss blk matching grills gills and window trim or stock. Also may do M3 rear emblem.

Pictures are slightly dark to see the details but it looks good.

Didn't install the gloss blk hood vents. But IMO it will give the hood an aggressive look

I just put in the gloss black hood vents on mine along with grills and an emblem. I really like it. I think it makes the vents pop a little more. You already see black on the hood, just imagine it a little bigger lol. I got matching side gills too but couldn't get the stock ones off so haven't installed them yet. I'd say go for it

I have matte black kidney grills and side grills. Interlagos blue.

Thought about getting black hood vents.

Should I go with matte black vents or change all 3 to gloss?

I would change it all to gloss. It all depends on ur window trim. Mine is high gloss so it all blends in well. If ur trim is mat blk then stick to mat blk

Great quality and finish from ind. I guess u always get what I pay for!

It all starts with this. These are gateway mods. Next thing you know, you'll have a supercharger with a bad meth habit.

We went the Carbon Fiber route but same concept. CF or Blk look good I think.
