FOUND ONE!!
BUYING IT

 

[bradc]

Just one?

 

[Guest]

at the moment, yes. but I've asked if theres more available

 

[montgomery]

did i help?

 

[Guest]

not really, still no idea who makes it,
hopefully there will be markings on it for the rest of you.

Err, won't the impact bar get in the way? Wait, let me guess - you've removed yours?

TBH you'd be better off making a shroud out of ABS plastic between the bumper grille and the sides of the IC. The ducted air won't be able to go anywhere except through the IC, substantially improving cooling performance. Although you won't end up with 'look at me' evo mods

 

[Guest]

no mines been trimed, and ill trim it more to suit

 

[naughtika]

i've been looking for these for quite a bit now, how much is it in AUD?

 

[Guest]

well i have secured mine and will be getting it soon,

apparently its called a Twest front bumper vent.

it was the only one he had, sorry guys.

 

[naughtika]

get someone to duplicate them

 

[Guest]

now why would i want to do that?

 

[naughtika]

so that you can sell more.. i'm pretty sure alot of vr4 owners around the world would want one.. but don't wanna spend too much $$$

 

[Guest]

sorry but a good mould costs alot of money,
then theres time and materials so they wouldnt be cheap.
i wouldnt be making them so not really worth my time

 

[Guest]

Doesn't this vent come standard on the evo7? As they just clip on and off couldn't you just use 1 of them????

 

[naughtika]

didnt think evo 7 had vents on the bumper.. can you show us a pic?

 

[Guest]

its similar design,

dunno bout size and fitment. (the evo bumper is quite curvy, ours is quite straight and flat)

but the part number for the evo 7 one is... MR957826 (white)
