Default Carbon Fiber Side Vents? Show them

Hi

Does anyone have some real carbon fiber side air vents/ducts and/or the front nose vent on his Vette? Please show them.

Halltech used to make them. Wish they still did. I would love a set for the nose vent, brake ducts, and fender vents.

The PO had them installed as a package interior and exterior including the wheel wells, vents, etc.
He told me it was around $4,500.

Does Apsis make a set? (I think that’s the company name) I thought they did a lot of custom carbon fiber parts.

I couldn’t do hydro carbon parts but that’s just me. I just don’t think they look good.

About $700 just for the fender vents. Way more than expected. Yeah, I'm out.

Thanks for sharing!

This!!

I email Halltech once and a while asking if they are going to run a few sets.......
Figured they would still have the molds, but maybe they tossed them.
Will keep bothering them, occasionally.

Really appreciate it the gesture, but I would need like 50% off for me to consider getting the whole set.

Oh, absolutely. I wasn't expecting you to come down to those prices. That would be a hell of a discount, haha .

I also emailed Halltech a while ago and told him I would buy immediately. A friend of mine has his vents and they are very beatuful. Hope he will do a few sets again...

You guys are crazy with those prices. No wonder you never see anyone with them. No one in there right mind would pay for that. Did fake carbon fiber just get crazy expensive or something.

For eveyone. Just take yours off and find the nearest hydro dipping place. And get them all done for like $200 bucks.

Fake CF? I do agree that the prices are high, but I'm sure they are definitely real CF at that price.

I agree with someone else who said hydro carbon looks kinda cheap in comparison. I have all real CF on my car and wouldn't really want any fake CF/hydro carbon stuff.

​​​​​​​If I remember right, Halltech had solid prices for all these pieces and were real CF as well. I'd buy a set from them in a heartbeat if they brought them back.
