Black vents and window surrounds is, in my opinion how these should have left the factory.
I'd keep the bonnets vents as they are and spend the money having the calipers refinished in BDE blue and swapping the centre caps to black or union jack design.
Again, personal taste, but I would gloss black wrap the side sills as this would then show off the 'waistline' of the car. I always think the bodykits in body colour make the car look a bit fat.
Stunning looking car, enjoy
regards, Paul

Hi Basher
Just had the gloss black side vents fitted to match the window surrounds and though I am biased I think it really looks good. I was thinking of having the bonnet vents done also but need to see a picture of them first as the price for the AWD vents are £458-00 per pair as in £198-00 for the RWD which I think is a bit steep to put it politely!!!! And as Pricy said Get it done!!! Cheers


Looks great. Big smile

I'd be so tempted to do the same... one day.

Hi Paul and thanks for your comments. You have got me thinking now I never thought about the calipers being blue but I like what your saying and the wheel centres also. I have seen a white ftype with black side skirts and black pack which looked really nice but I feel it's not for me but thanks anyway and for the idea of blue calipers!!! Cheers Ian

Hi Gillie could you tell me if you had the gloss black window surrounds retrofitted or were they supplied like that? If a retrofit would you mind letting on how much it cost as it looks superb with the side vents too!
