Fender Vent Holes?

[Eric0508]

I was at Meijer tonight with my finance buying groceries and came across this beauty(?), Thoughts? Comments? vomiting? Just thought I'd share with you.

Sorry for the poor quality, its from my cell.

Eh, makes it look like a Buick.

leave the buick holes on buicks... just my two cents. i've seen them on too many cars with too ugly rimes. oldsmobiles, malibus, etc..

 

[Quik LS]

those are not real vent holes - they are just the stick-ons from e-bay...

Yeah, i saw one on a taurus driving around town the other day, even more appalling.

 

[Kelleyo]

My gawd. Almost as bad as the crapola carriage top...

 

[NYC LS8]

That LS is bound for the cover shot on a future JC Whitney catalog.

I once saw a late nineties mustang with matte paint, a big black erector set spoiler on the back, and the fake vent holes. I laughed heartily.

i think it kills the look of the car ....... any kind a car

Does anyone know what that black spot above the windsheild is? Rust maybe?

Probably some sort of antenna base.

I'm not sure if that makes it better or worse...

 

[stuntin_LS]

VERY tacky.. i like the vents on the new lincolns n cadillacs tho

 

[ElLoco]

what you all talking about it looks nice and it is what people using now Thats style so dont hate

 

[eastcoastLS]

Fender vents don't go with the lines of the car, thats why no one likes them. Maybe if the LS was designed with them they might look more appropriate than a faux sticker vent.

 

[AngelEyesAdrift]

yea, i bought the oval ones for like 20 bucks at auto zone thinking they'd look good, i test fit them on about 20 different angles and places.. they look decent on a 45 but better not there at all...

 

[kwazy]

trailer park

 

[camthman]

so tacky looking...

 

[rickztahone]

if i were ever to consider that it would have to be a functional vent "slot" not vents

 

[tagliato22]

loco, just my opinion but id scrape those off the car. in your picture they dont look like theyre lined up straight either.

i concure... and further more i hope thats a v6.... those vents originated on the belair and usually are representative of how many cylinders you have.. totally trailor park.. haha buy a straight edge...

Thats funny, I didnt even think to look at the time. However, it would be ironic if it was a V8 with those 6 vents.

stick on anything (be it hood scoops, fender vents... whatever) look like exactly what they are... cheap rip-off substitutes for the real thing. If you can't afford to have a scoop hood installed or holes and trim for your fender... don't do it.

Plus, fender vents look like crap on almost all cars anyway.
