The Fender side vents i was thinking of adding these to my car purely for the looks what you guys think.

But that's just my opinion. ;)

They are not that bad, i've seen worse.... all depends on what you want for an exterior look.

Z3 fender vents belong on a Z3.. I'd stay away from those "universal" style parts.

i bought a set, but they came as complete steel fenders.....

and they'll look better than my dinged up stock ones from dumb@$$es pulling up on my fenders to get my car on the hoist :angry:

i think they look nice if you have a good exterior mod list, but if your running the rest of the car stock, it looks like s**t, no offence

if you like em go for it, but if you are keeping longer term maybe look into whether they'll rust faster than stock.. and also keep in mind a buyer probably won't like em

I dont think im going to get them if they only come in sheet metal i want my ride to be lighter not heavier.

the stock panels are sheetmetal too? what's the diff? those just have the maDD TitE vents

If my stock ones fell off and those were cheaper.................maybe. I'd more likely go with Euro for side triangles. Find a way to combine both and be OEM price.......I'd hit it. If a lighter material was available...definately.

It's not a Z3 exclusive thing, it's a recycled thing, it used to be very common on all sorts of cars.

I always thought maDD tyt3 and non functioning pretty much meant the same thing. :lol:
I don't mind the fenders on the grey focus pictured, they don't look too out of place

Why put vents?
A bug deflecter will deflect the bugs etc but Eeeuuuwww!
And Eeeuuww!!
Don't forget the rally vent for the roof, the 3 piece wings west mid wing job,
the whale tail rear roof spoiler and chrome double blade wipper blades.
Neon lights everywhere!
