WTB and Advice on Carbon Fiber Front Vent Covers

Anybody selling a set of CF front vent covers, new to mint condition?

Also, what is your guys opinion on them and the look. Anyone like the look? Recommend them? Bought them and regretted it?

I believe you just 3M tape them on, right?

Looking forward to your feedback...

I just recently purchased the front side CF vents (facelifted version by Mode Carbon) for my 2013 and yes they are attached via 3M. The quality and weave is great and the fit is fine. The overall look of this piece being in a primary area (front corner/side) depends on the color of the car since the CF on a white or light colored car is going to pop more than a darker color. Since I have Steel Gray it blends a little better and doesn't look as bulky.

It's mimicking the CLK63BS and when it came with CF vent covers. It looked nice. I think if you don't have a front lip the vent covers add an accent of CF to the front if you have a CF boot spoiler...

Yezzur, I don't have the full front lip spoiler, only the middle CF insert chin spoiler so they flow pretty well without being too busy up front.

I had a set to test fit from a friend.. Took them off the same day, it looks too bulky on the pre-facelifted bumper & on white (light color) cars.
