Which wingtop vent cover?

Oops! misread the +postage - sincere apologies.

Have you had any issues with them denting?

There's food for thought! Any idea of manufacturer/ part number and price?

I notice many application where you see venting made from metal, particularly where gas bottles are stored etc. I wonder where you get that from, and if it could be cut to shape?

Like this stuff http://www.ullrich.com.au/images/vent.jpg

Ben your right if the is less holes there is less cutting

Price was for each side

This is the one I got, it uses the original securing screws. About a 5min install.

Does it look out of place having just the left side raised?

I think it looks good, without having to match each side.

As you can see, it's quite discreet.

Is there anything under the flat blocked off driver side....you could buy two (left/right are the same correct) and youd get a bit of cooler air through that area or does the right side need to be blocked off ?

There's nothing under the RHS. It leads to the wheel arch behind the overflow bottle (on the Tdi model). I've put my hot water heat exchanger in there and use the flat panel as an access hatch in case I need to access it in the event of a leak.
