Is there any such thing as an OEM chrome cowl vent for an 88 GT?

I stand corrected, that doesn't look too bad, but if its a hard top I think the moldings should all be painted satin black.

I think that it works on droptop's car because of the hood, on a stockish hood it wouldn't work as well.

Yes your red ragtop looks good with a painted cowl vent grill, but I have a little different look I want to acheive. Besides where is your twinturbo intake holes? lol,, You look good but, do you make power?

I prefer the trim stay black. Not a fan of painted trim and cowl and mirrors. Reminds me of the 399 special at Maaco when I see that

I would think that sun reflection off of a chrome cowl vent could be hell when driving.
