Default *** 2003-2005 Blobeye reverse bonnet vents ***

I have managed to get a local company to take a mould off the bonnet vent I used on my car for the last couple of years, and produce them for me.

I have had to have 10 made initially which has dictated the cost of these.

I can supply them in bare GRP (fibreglass) or can supply them in colour.






They sit flush in the original bonnet recess, and come with stainless fittings, as fitted to my own car.






They are produced by the same people who have worked on TVR's bodywork in the past, so quality is guaranteed.

I wouldn't promote or offer anything that I wouldn't use on my own car.

Prices are:

Bare GRP £100.00 delivered

GRP in colour £140.00 delivered


This is an open offer at the moment as I have had to have these made already, so time scale is not an issue untill they are all sold.

Any questions/enquiries please either PM me or post on here.

Many thanks, Neil.

I might be interested in a painted (02C paint code) or a carbon fibre version, I'm having a FMIC fitted very soon and had bought a Kakumei CF reverse scoop but I do like these as well.

I'm sure if these prove popular, and they have all sold out by then I will be able to get another batch done.

Keep an eye on this thread, I will update it as often as I can.

Cheers Neil.

I can paint it Obsedian Black no probs.

Badgeless grill is a DIY jobbie, get yer hacksaw out and chop it.


Once I have my hand on these, I wil contact people interested for either a deposit for those wanting painted ones, or full payment for anyone wanting a bare GRP version.

Cheers, Neil.
