Going ahead and redesigning my fender vents. Machined the 1st one out this afternoon. started the other side tonight... roughly 2 hours to machine. Still have to machine out the fins that will have chrome overlays on them. Ill keep posting updates

I will be selling my old ones if anyone is interested, they match the honeycomb webbing on the front grille.

 

Looks good! Can't wait to see the finished product

 

Looks good. I would like to them with an SS spedd grill behind them.....and then black chrome the hole thing. Id pay for that one.

 

 

 

Any more progress on the fender vents??

 

Not yet... working on some other projects for the guys in the shop.

Basically all I have to do is sand them and paint them. Prob gonna work on them this week.

 

So is the material you're making the vents out of HDPE? I've worked with that stuff a lot at a prior job.

 

Delrin... I wasnt too sure if HDPE would take paint the best. Delrin machines alot better too

 

Pretty awesome, are they going to function at all or just to look pretty?

 

Looks very similar. Hard to tell exactly from images. :o

 

Very cool project. Are they just stick on or do they require cutting the fender? How about the badge, does it stay or go?

 

Ive alreday got holes cut in the fender when I put on my first set i made on. I have threaded studs on the back of the vents so they are fastened to the fender from the inside with nuts. The badges are gone. I lined the top of the vent up with the tops of the door handles.

 

Nice work...must be fun to have that kind of stuff to play with...

 

Looks like the project is going great so far, very interesting, i'm sure it will look good.
