Fender vents
So I looked around kinda early on into owning my car and noticed there were quite a few options out there for fender vents and found the basic style i liked and saw (that at least all the brands I looked at) had pretty mixed reviews. most of these mixed reviews were due to either quality of the part itself or the fitment of the part. that being said I pulled one of those "well how bad can it really be" moments and bought an Evo R vent, for a decent chunk of change (it was over $100 with shipping, but i dont remember how much exactly and it dont really matter).
anyways while dealing with the shitty fitment and realizing exactly why they fit so shitty I got thinking about some things that could be done with new technology to make a "better" product, however this would have a pretty significant "development cost" obviously more than I'd want to spend personally for one set of vents. so before even thinking about jumping headlong into something that might not even be a real market...
Is there a true "high quality" non carbon fiber option available that isnt stupidly expensive. Im talking a product that you just take out the old ones and snap in the replacement no messing with heat guns to get fitment that should already be there out of the box something that will have factory looking fitment with aftermarket styling?

The quality of the finish of Rotary FX wasn't great in terms of UV resistance but they fit perfect. I just had them properly repainted so they should be good for another 5 years.
