Engine Bay Gills

I'm trying to source a pair of engine bay gills to put on my 550. I don't know whether they are part of the mould or cut into the body. They don't need to open, but I think they look sweet as an extra. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Most of these are part of the mold but,,, Try Greg at Vintage Spyders
or Russ Rodriguez at Fibersteel.

One of them may have a set laying around from a previous project that you can fiberglass into your cars body

Thanks Larry. I have tried Russ and he only has the intakes in the top. With all the issues I have been reading about Vintage, are they safe to order from? Australia is a long way to come to chase a bit of fibreglass after my money has been taken!

You'll have no problem dealing with Vintage. Remember, there are 2 sides to every story.

Thanks - I will give Greg a try - Andrew

how did you go with the gills?

I have learnt so much more since then! Mainly the difference between a RS550 and a 550A. As my car is based on a RS, I didn't want to cross breed, but got very close - only the As had the carbie inspection doors where the gills are. The spyder is 95% finished now, and I'm glad I didn't go down that track

you can see some final pics of it here
