Default Need A Quick Opinion On Tail Vents

okay so last night (while waiting for the adhesive I used to mount my front signalsl to cure) I made some tail vent pads out of seat foam and vinyl...

my question is I did them yellow but what do you think would look better black or yellow vinyl?

I have some extra black as well

not sure if I like it or not. You obviously dont need the vents like the RR does, so sealing them up makes sense.

Its different so it suits you Zach lol

^^ funny thing is the RR vents arent really vents at all... (or at least 1k, cant speak for the 600rr)

the 1k vents are solid haha no air flow, they are just for aesthetics

and thx Mr. Jones.... ;-) haha

I like the yellow. It actually looks natural.


Not to derail this thread, but what actual purpose do the vents serve on the tail anyway? Sorry for the noob question.
