Vent Side Marker

Does anyone make a vent side marker yet for the 86?

I was checking out pictures of the Vanquish and thought this looks pretty cool.


I think the 'spear' on the BRZ fender vent would be the perfect place for an LED side marker similar to this.

I want these vents to actually vent some of the heat from under the hood to outside the car.

I think that would be especially nice for the twins since our cars don't have a side mirror, or even on the front quarter panel, signals. Havings a blinker that is on the front quarter panel or the side mirror is helpful to visibility. This is why I don't know why the twins didn't have come with those from the factory.

I agree. Fake vents are tiresome.

I honestly never thought about this till now, and normally dont like extra lighting but if the 86 in the piston lit up like the 10 series logo for a side marker that would be pretty nice.

I saw an aftermarket product on here somewhere that was a plate that sat behind the piston logo and had the same sort of effect as the 10series badges. I think it came in red, white, and orange. But I do remember it being a bit expensive.

It would be interesting to have a light up vent that responded to engine rpm. Perhaps a bit too flashy and ridiculous, but fun.
