As most Lexus SC owners can relate, the plastics of the vent bezels tend to become brittle and crack. With new parts nearly impossible to find, I wanted a solution that would last. I set about modeling the vent bezels and making improvements to overcome many of the shortcomings of the original design. I believe I have a high quality solution for those of use who no longer want to deal with cracked vent bezels, and drooping vents.
What is it:
A repair kit to fix the cracked vent bezel and floppy vents typical on the Lexus SC300 and SC400. This will fit the 1992-2000 Models. These are produced using FDM (3D Printing) utilizing a more UV stable ASA plastic than the stock ABS. The bezel has a slightly textured finish (as pictured), which better mimics the factory unit and reduces layer line appearance typical with printed components. Those desiring a perfect factory matched finish may lightly sand and paint the new bezel before installing.
What you'll receive:
- The vent bezel (wood trim, vents, and vent housing will be reused and are not included)
- Vent repair bushings (used to address vents that are loose or no longer hold their position)
- Thickening of the face plastics.
- Thickening of the snaps that hold the vent housing assembly.
- Added bracing at the airflow control dial to reduce stress on the face and brace the upper and lower alignment screw mounts.
- Printed using PolyLite ASA, which is offers excellent UV performance and durability
- This can be a complicated installation. A link to repair instructions is available upon request or when completing a purchase. Vehicle disassembly isn't covered in the repair instructions.
- Due to the hand-made nature and age of the wood trim in these vehicles, it is possible that minor filing or adjustment may be required to achieve good fitment.
- End-user damaged or modified bezels aren't returnable.
