Default 22B bonnet vents

Cant seem to find any from the normal suppliers and the ones on eBay are crap versions made from suspect moulds.

So anyone got any from breaking or lying around. must be in good condition but don't care if they need painting or priming.

For V4 onwards


cheers

Did you check ICP? I'm near sure they had new factory painted ones for sale.

A shame as scoobyworld, scoobyparts used to do them and also HT Autos but can't seem to find them doing it anymore

Can't vouch for them, look OEM if they are what you get. Might buy some and find out.

If that's the case when they turn up, I'll return them and get my money back.

They look okay (ish) but I am more concerned about the funky bed spread you have

and the fit of them ?

Any good , only asking because I have an old set of vents in the garage which at a push could be stripped back and painted by some bodyshop.

Failing that I may still be on the hunt. These you have seem not to be exact replicas as they dont have the same fixings as the standard vents ?

Only test fitted one of them, check your messages numb nuts!

The fit isn't fantastic, they don't fill the apperture as well as the HT Auto's ones and I presume OEM do. It's not as bad as the chap above made out though.

They do use the OEM mounting points and fixings are included.

Excuse the filthy(you didn't do a very good job of cleaning it ) and shabbyness of my bonnet.
