Default Did anyone buy the A&C OEM Stainless Steel Gills (louvers) with your kit?

If so, can you post or email me close up pictures of it? I'm trying to decide between them or aluminum. Thanks!

This is the best shot I have. I believe I got mine in stainless from Bethenia Garage in GA. He is the Europa Spares US dealer.

I did not use A&C's because I didn't want mine glued to the inside of the body. I bought mine from Whitby Motorcars out of Greensboro, N.C. on the web at www.whitbymotorcars.com. These are a bolt in style that required me making studded tabs which I bonded into the body so that they bolt into the body for ease of removal in case of future repaint. Best of all, they are only $85 plus shipping. I don't have any pics right now but I can get some if you'd like.

I guess I should mention how I did mine. I took two pieces of angle aluminum, as brackets, and riveted the vents to it and just siliconed it to the inside of the body. Been on for my third year and no sign of loosening. Very simple.

Default Side Vents

I got my stainless side vents from A & C. I attached them like Roscoe did with aluminum angle brackets pop riveted to the vent frame. I drilled holes in the bracket where it would be up against the body and silicone adhesive applied. Have not had a problem in 5000 miles.
I am attaching some pic's hope it works.
