custom side vents anyone have them
I posted a topic in the photoshop page to see if someone could place one for me. But the functional side vents that you see on the new escalades and other cars. Does anyone have these molded in their trucks? pics would be awesome thanks. or other designs/ this is the one i found...

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
I saw a guy around town that used the vents from a late 70's z-28. That kinda messed with the lines of the truck. No pics, but I hope someone else comes up with some for you.

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
Just my .02... They are FUGLY.
Have you noticed they make stick - on ones? And have you noticed what vehicles have the stick on ones?

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
Vents are ricer bling. Keep the classic lines of your truck, and let the ricers keep those vents.

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
now looking more into it. it seems way too out of place. i have seen the three square linear ones on some old custom cars but anything that i have really looked at is just to much "ricer bling".

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
I have to say that I am horribly surprised how good those look on there, I am usually 100% against them as well.... These are pretty well done, still look out of place to me though.

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
I think that has been done quite nice. I have seen some with the trans-Am ones and it was popular back in the day...

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
I will see if I can find the picture, but some one on here did custom 3 hole vents in the sides of the hood. The holes I believe were a little elongate and to me it lookked real good.

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
that 67 pic from special K is the only one IMHO that will look good. You have a GMC and your avitar looks like you already shaved your side markers. It wont look autozoney either. You dont see a lot of them on these trucks. I want to have the vents machined out, but it might be easier to have new ones cast.

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
If I ever vented a fender, I would use the 07-10 Cadillac Escalade vents, not the cheapo ones. Trevor

Re: custom side vents anyone have them
Sounds like "Buick" Portholes.They were factory on Buicks for years and used in a lot of customs "back in the day."
