    Fibreglass? I like them, they could be a bit deeper into the guard to show more vent IMO.
    I'm not arguing...I'm just offering an endless series of contrary points of view.

    yeah the bottom part of the vent is almost non existant.

    Is there a discount for club members?

    Just saw these a few days ago but agree they are a bit expensive! Nice alternative to venting the bonnet but likewise would prefer deeper / more aggressive vents.

    I would like them a little deep too but found out after the mold had been made
    that they are only 30 or so mm deep. and its a lot of work to made a new mold.
    The finshed guards them self could be cut and pushed in without to much trouble.

    cheers

    Is cutting and deepening them something you could do on request? ie if I wanted a set but was unhappy with the depth of the vent, how much extra cost for you to mod a set?

    Another question while I think of it.

    The pictures are of them fitted to a pre-face lift car (or a manual facelift maybe?), which don't have the factory wheel-arch extensions. Have you trial fitted your vented guards with the arch extensions, to see if there are any fitment or alignment issues? Do the arch extensions clear the vent for example?

    Cheers for the help.

    Thats a good point Wynn! Woodeye does make the wheel arch flares, so hopefully he's done it all right

    Ohh and Manual Type S Facelift Legnums have wheel arch flares, it is only the Type V manual Galants
