    Okay I am sure there are threads but after searching and searching I could not find what I was looking for and its two things...

    First, is there anywhere on here that shows or describes the removal of the side vents? My 13 has a silver side vent which i don't like but bought the car because it was perfect in every other way. I have tried to have it wrapped but too many pieces for my picky taste.

    I either want to pull it and have it painted to match or replace it with Carbon fiber or something else.

    So besides how to pull it, any pics or links to aftermarket side vents would be appreciated!

    PM me your e-mail and I will send you a PDF on how to remove the fender liners. The fasteners to remove the vents would be from the back side of the fenders, and easily accessible once the liners are loose/removed!

    Here is a photo of the back of the body panel where the black grill box of the side vent and side marker are located. The other photo shows the back of the Novitec CF unit.

    The parts diagram also shows a rubber gasket (27) that goes between the side vent and its grill box.

    Following up on this 2017 thread; I removed the wheel liner but can't get to the vent (left side); did you remove the washer fluid container to get to it?
