Milotec bumper vents

RobClubley · 31-05-2007, 04:22

I've been thinking about getting some of these:

Any opinions? Anyone fitted them? How scary is it cutting the bumper?

Quinten · 31-05-2007, 07:45

Really scary

I've not got them, but what you should do is start with drawing the outline onto the bumper, then cut it out with a dremel a good piece smaller than what your hole needs to be. Then use a file/sanding paper to fine-tune the size. Nothing is worse than having a small section thats cut out to big and shows underneath the vent.

jimvrs has some on his yellow vrs.

Check his old thread in the for sale section

RobClubley · 31-05-2007, 21:25

Cheers guys.

Jim's don't look like the Milotec ones..

But I do like the look. I'll have to get 'em painted of course!

mattbeef · 01-06-2007, 08:26

Least you get an idea of what they will look like though

Got any pics of them and/or the fitting?

I ordered a set from superskoda.com

RobClubley · 15-06-2007, 05:01

Well they arrived this week - VERY quick serive from superskoda.com

I haven't done anything with them yet - need to get them painted.

Ender · 17-06-2007, 10:26

RobClubley · 18-06-2007, 00:09

I thought about leaving them black too but I think body coloured will look nicer.

That does help Des, cheers

RobClubley · 01-09-2007, 07:08

They're painted at last. now for the scary bit.

**mannyo** · 01-09-2007, 08:40

Take your time, mark, check, check again and go slowly.

This should do the trick...

KTP · 01-09-2007, 12:31

i like the look of them, will see the finished product when posted.

WaveyDavey · 01-09-2007, 12:56

Of course it'd be a lot less hassle to get rid of the octy and buy a furby vRS instead with them already done.

Cheers

Dave.
