Vixen S2 side vent louvres

[pigiron]

I need to replace the side vent louvres on my Vixen S2, mine are stainless, is that OE?
I could fabricate some but being a lazy so-in-so I would rather buy a pair, any ideas?

Anyone ...?

I need one replacement as well but I'm pretty sure it's one those "make your own" jobs.

Nope, those are S3.

S2 are hand made profile and riveted together, I think original finish is polished stainless, door surrounds are chrome on brass.

S2 door surrounds are aluminum surely?

Nope. Deffinitely Brass benearh a finish coating, not sure whether originally chrome or an anodised finish. I don't meann the door frame bye the way, I mean the surround that rivets onto the bodyshell that forms the drip rail to the roof.

Yep S2 were chrome on brass, I made some nice ally ones for my yellow Vixen.
They match the door frames better & are alot lighter !!!
Cheers Ian !
