Silver foil on vent tabs- where to buy?

bcornwellatl · 08-12-2018, 08:11 AM

Could somebody lead me to the right place to buy that stupid foil for a 2013 F30? Totally crazy that is flaking off this early. I have looked around but doesn’t seem easy to find. Thanks in advance for links, or suggestions...

Can you post a picture of what you're talking about?
I can't think of any vents with foil on them

If you're talking about the silver accent on the tab used to adjust the vent as in pics below - it's not replaceable

You would need to either source new/used vents, or pick up some silver/brushed aluminum vinyl, cut to fit and apply...

Check venttabs.com but be warned they're focused more on functional vs exact match. Whatever they have for your car may or may not be same as OEM.
