Why the Side Vents Gloss Black Carbon Fibre Universal Kit is the Best Exterior Upgrade
Unlike cheap imported side vents that warp, fade, and fall off under the Australian sun, the Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre range is manufactured from high-grade materials in every finish variant — premium UV-resistant ABS for the gloss black and carbon look options, genuine woven carbon fibre for the carbon variant, and high-quality paintable ABS for the primer finish. Every vent is precision-moulded with clean edges, consistent panel lines, and a finish quality that complements even the most meticulously detailed builds.
Performance car enthusiasts across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth consistently rate these side vents as the best value exterior upgrade for transforming a standard car into something that commands attention — at a fraction of the cost of a full body kit or wide-body conversion. The combination of multiple finish options, multiple mounting locations, and true universal fitment makes the Side Vents Gloss Black Carbon Fibre kit the most versatile single exterior upgrade available at Bodykitbae.

Aerodynamic & Visual Benefits of the Side Vents Universal Car Kit
Real Aerodynamic Function
The Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre kit delivers genuine aerodynamic benefits alongside its dramatic visual transformation:
- Front Fender Venting: Front fender mounted side vents reduce high-pressure air buildup inside the front wheel arch — venting turbulent air outward reduces front-end lift and improves straight-line stability at highway speeds
- Brake Cooling Airflow: Fender-mounted side vents can direct ambient airflow toward front brake assemblies — reducing brake temperatures during spirited driving on mountain roads in Melbourne and Brisbane
- Drag Reduction: Properly positioned side vents manage the airflow separation points along the car’s body — reducing turbulent drag along the flanks of the vehicle
- Rear Quarter Downforce: Rear quarter panel vents help manage airflow over the rear haunches of the car — contributing to rear downforce and reducing rear-end lift at speed
- Visual Width: Side vents add a perception of visual width and stance to any car — making the vehicle look wider, lower, and more aggressive from every angle

Vehicle-Specific Fitment Guide
Side Vents for Subaru BRZ / Toyota 86
The Side Vents Gloss Black Carbon Fibre kit is an extremely popular upgrade for Subaru BRZ ZC6 and Toyota 86 ZN6 owners across Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. The most popular fitment on the BRZ/86 platform is front fender mounting — adding aggressive visual width to the narrow factory guards and complementing the Aimgain roof spoiler and FA-style carbon bonnet for a complete aero package. Carbon fibre side vents are the #1 choice for full carbon BRZ and 86 builds, while gloss black suits clean OEM+ street builds perfectly.
Side Vents for Volkswagen Golf MK7 / MK7.5
For Volkswagen Golf GTI and Golf R owners across Sydney and Melbourne, the Side Vents Universal Car kit mounts cleanly to both the front bumper and rear quarter panels of the MK7 and MK7.5 platform. The carbon look and genuine carbon fibre finishes pair perfectly with the Varis-style carbon bonnet and OSIR roof spoiler for a complete motorsport aero treatment. Gloss black is the most popular choice for clean GTI and Golf R daily drivers looking for subtle aggressive exterior accents.
Side Vents for Mitsubishi Lancer / EVO X
The Side Vents Gloss Black Carbon Fibre kit is a natural fit for Mitsubishi Lancer and EVO X builds across Australia. Front fender and side skirt mounting are the most popular positions on the EVO platform — adding rally-inspired visual width that complements the EVO X’s naturally aggressive stance. Carbon fibre side vents pair perfectly with EVO X carbon bonnets, rear wings, and diffuser packages for a full WRC-inspired exterior build.
Universal Fitment — Every Other Car
For every other make and model across Australia — from Ford Mustang and Honda Civic Type R to BMW 3 Series, Nissan 370Z, Toyota Supra, and beyond — the Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre kit mounts to any flat or gently curved body panel surface using the included automotive-grade adhesive. If it has fenders, bumpers, quarter panels, or side skirts, these side vents fit.
Installation Guide – Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre
Installing your Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre kit requires no specialist mechanical skills, no drilling, and no cutting in most applications. The full installation can be completed in under 1 hour using the included adhesive mounting system.
Required Tools
- Isopropyl alcohol (panel cleaning — essential for adhesive bond)
- Microfibre cloths
- Masking tape (alignment marking and panel protection)
- Heat gun or hair dryer (adhesive activation)
- Ruler or tape measure (positioning and alignment)
- Pencil or chalk marker (position marking)
Step-by-Step Installation Process
- Choose Your Mounting Location: Decide whether you are mounting to the front fender, front bumper, rear quarter panel, or side skirt — and confirm your preferred position and orientation on the car
- Dry Fit the Vents: Hold each side vent against the chosen mounting panel without removing the adhesive backing — confirm positioning, angle, and visual balance from multiple angles
- Mark Your Position: Use masking tape to carefully mark the exact position of each side vent on the panel surface — left and right sides should be mirror-image symmetrical
- Clean the Panel Surface: Thoroughly clean the entire mounting area with isopropyl alcohol — remove all wax, polish, grease, and contamination. This step is critical for maximum adhesive bond strength
- Dry the Surface Completely: Allow the isopropyl alcohol to fully evaporate before proceeding — the surface must be completely dry
- Activate the Adhesive: Use a heat gun or hair dryer to gently warm the pre-applied adhesive tape on the base of each side vent — 15–20 seconds per vent is sufficient
- Mount First Vent: Peel the adhesive backing from the first vent, carefully align to your masking tape position markers, and press firmly onto the panel surface
- Apply Firm Pressure: Hold steady firm pressure across the entire base surface of each vent for 30–60 seconds to ensure full adhesive contact
- Mount Mirror Side: Repeat the process for the opposite side — take extra care to ensure mirror symmetry between left and right vents
- Remove Masking Tape: Carefully peel away all masking tape position markers
- Final Visual Check: Step back and check both vents from the front, side, and rear — confirm symmetry, alignment, and panel gap consistency
- Cure Time: Allow 24 hours before washing or highway driving for full adhesive cure

SEO FAQs – Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre
What are Side Vents and what do they do on a car?
Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre are precision-moulded aerodynamic accent panels that mount to the front fender, front bumper, rear quarter panel, or side skirt of your car. They serve both aerodynamic and visual functions — reducing wheel arch air pressure buildup, directing airflow along the car’s flanks, adding visual width and stance, and delivering a motorsport-grade exterior aesthetic to any build.
Will the Side Vents fit my Subaru BRZ or Toyota 86?
Yes! The Side Vents Universal Car Gloss Black Carbon Fibre kit is designed to fit the Subaru BRZ ZC6 and Toyota 86 ZN6 platforms across all model years.
