Sent you a message about this from your site and was wondering what was possible. Looking for a wrinkle black but a satin black would work as well.

Hmmm... I've received no message. That sucks.

However, I can look into it for you! That would be no problem. I'll post when I find out.

Thanks a bunch. I sent it via my tablet so it may not have gone through. Looking forward to hearing back.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

I just ordered another batch of vent rings. I got a set of satin black coming as well as a set of black wrinkle finish. Looking forward to getting them in front of my camera.

Satin Black

Gloss vs Satin. The satin has a nice metal flake to it. Really nice when the light hits it.

Wrinkle finish. It's stunning in person. I'm amazed at how good it looks. Very similar to the OEM plastic that it's covering, but suddenly that plastic became metal. It's really really cool.

They look amazing! Sorry I'm just responding now, I never got an email notification of a new post in the thread. I'm totally in for the wrinkle black ones! Sending you an order now! :mrgreen:

All finishes of vent rings are back in stock. And I recently lowered the price ever so slightly. $39 + shipping gets you rings.

Damn you (shakes fist)! Or should I place the blame on emilio84? Wherever it falls, I just sent in my order for a set of satin black. I love the gloss black ones I got previously but these will suit my tastes better (I very much like an understated look). Thank you for continuing to provide more choices, even if it does cost me more money!

No problem! They're all packed up and will go out tomorrow.

BTW, white, gold, polished and silver are usually in stock. You know, for folks who don't have vent rings yet.

The LAST set of Art Deco Vent Rings in the world is in my hands right now. My manufacturer discontinued them. I won't ever be able to offer them again and will be taking them off my site. This makes me rather sad. They're so pretty and catch the light so nicely.

The Deco vent rings have a rounded profile. They're apparently more difficult to machine and don't sell that well for my supplier. So they're now gone. And they're now something I'd consider rare. I've sold less than a dozen over the years. And I've sold hundreds of the other design.

I'm only posting this set here on MR. If you want them, hit my store and order.

The last set of Deco rings is spoken for. They're indeed going to a good home.

Having a hard time deciding between gloss black and satin black.

Does anyone have more real world installed pictures of either product in their car?

Here's a shot of the satin ones installed in my car:

I started with a set of the gloss ones, then bought the satin ones when he released them. I prefer this look, it blends in well with the dash while still giving a difference from stock.

If you want to sell the gloss ones, I can use them...

I recently changed my Gloss Black Sharka vents to Garage5 Brushed Aluminium ones. Here is a comparo.

Hopefully in these photos you can tell the glossiness of the black vents

I went with the satin black. Will get pics in better lighting once all 4 are installed.
