Default 95 A/C Vent Covers

I have a '95 Indy Pace Car with a/c vent covers that are sticky to the touch. I can't find replacement parts at the big Corvette parts suppliers like Eckler's, Mid America, etc. I've replaced the console surround and driver information surround but can't find the vent covers.
Do any of you know a source for these plastic parts?

I couldn't find them either. I believe the only one available in the aftermarket is the driver side vent. I ended up stripping all the sticky dulso off with non-acetone nail polish remover and repainting them on my own.

Thanks TorchTarga94 - did you get any special GM paint and did the repaired parts match the old plastic ok?

No sir, I just use Stacey David's technique. Duplicolor adhesion promoter and paint. I've done a lot of plastics in a lot of different cars with this method with great results. Just make sure you strip dulso first and prep plastic well.


I've done the a/c vents, center console, and radio bezel and its been great since 2012 or so. Looks just as good as the day I painted it.
