Thumbs up Mode Carbon Side Vents!

I just recently received my Mode Carbon Side Vents. The look absolutely incredible (as expected)! The weave is flawless.

To those that are considering these, I highly recommend that you pull the trigger. I haven't installed them yet but I held them up to the car and they looked tastefully aggressive. They will provide some great contrast on the front end of my Iridium Silver beast.

The Side Vents will also go well with my Mode Carbon OEM Front Replacement Lip, which I'm also about to install:

Rear of the car (diffuser and spoiler) is next.

I'd like to once again thank Nick at Mode Carbon! The quality of Mode Carbon's products is phenomenal and their customer service is unparalleled in the industry.

Nice Zibby! I have never been a fan of the side vent cf bits, they all seem very bulky to me, these seem a little more low profile from your pics. Interested in seeing these installed.
And I love that center lip! Too bad us pre-fl guys can not get them.

Yeah they look nice and will give a more aggressive front to the FL cars.
Post pics when you have them installed

Thanks man! Appreciate the kind words. I know exactly what you mean but you are right, these are definitely thinner than anything else I've seen out there.

What impresses me most about the Side Vents is that they truly look/feel like an OE part. When I did my mock-up, they looked like they belonged on the bumper of the LCI car. The build quality is outstanding and they are very easy to line up on the bumper.

I will take a better profile photo before installing.

Thanks buddy! Completely agree. I will have installed photos soon. I'm about to install quite a few mods (Eurocharged V5 Tune, AMG Door Pins, 507 Gear Selector [I just had to get another one], etc.) so I'll do before and after shots in the C63 Picture Thread. My car has remained "stock" long enough!

Haha yep! I was bummed to "part" with it but I was happy it was going to someone that knows how to mod. Once I saw it installed, I scoured the Earth for another.

Completely agree! Any photos of the lip installed? Would love to see it.

Can't wait to see installed pics, i was never a fan on CF side vents either but those look subtle.
