I bought the mesh versions, but sprayed the inside of the opening with black Plastidip first as I didnā€™t like the look of the blue through the mesh. Easy to do, came out great.

How is the plastic dip holding up? I am thinking of doing the same thing, but not sure if I want to paint or plastic dip, but I've had an bad experience with plastic dip longevity issue lol.

Looks as good as the day I put it on. But my car has probably only gained 4k miles, rarely sees rain, and spends most of the time in a garage. I have done probably 20 track sessions though, so itā€™s def gotten warm.

Did you paint or plastic dip inside the new vent?
No, I left it as is. This vent design hides the paint underneath a lot better than the carbon fiber versions with the mesh.

Thatā€™s why I think itā€™s the most OEM+ option.
