I was able to load a few pix of Phil's car.

These are plastic pieces (actuall original pieces) so they aren't powder coated. The mesh is plastic coated from a local store. I usually paint them flat black or I can use semi-gloss, gloss. I send them put together and ready to install. I could also not attach the mesh so if anyone would like to have them painted to match the body color. But there are black extensions still on the car that might stand out more.

Clam hinge cars: one bolt that attaches pointed towards the front of the car and two slots the vents slide into.

Non Hinged: best way is like Dave said, remove the rear wheel and wheel arch liner. Then are TWO bolts (I believe 10mm): one towards the front (same as above) and one pointed towards the outter fender. Remove these, slide out the old, slide in the new and reattach the bolts.

Shadowhusky's idea is great and will work for hinged. this will work for non hinged or someone that doesn't want to attach to mesh permanently to the car.

The vents can be taken back to stock should the need arise and can be purchased through Lotus Garage.

Yes, it's $150 for both Right and Left vent + your old vents. I pay for shipping to you and you ship the old vents back.

Dave, Yours are looking good and are being shipped out today at lunch. I'll have a tracking number for you this evening. Thanks!

Hope this helps.
