Hi, I am trying to decide on vent rings or not for my 1997 Limited Edition with tan interior.
What does everyone think would be the nicest style.
Vent Rings Finish or none at all

Leave it as is. Nothing goes with tan
When I picked mine up the last owner had stuck some sort of fake wood vent rings and widow switch surround on...bleurgh

Sorry, this is no help to you because my interior is black, but when i bought the car I was toying with the idea of vent rings. Glad i didn't in the end, looks too blingy for me, i also like the mean and moody black look.

I've had both Brushed Alu and Shiney Stainless steel in mine.
Personally I much prefer the Brushed look, Shiney was a bit too much for me.
I think the BRG+tan would be suited to either. I'd lean towards a brushed Alu, similar to that on Ferrari road cars of the 60s

Another penetrating question or survey- is this necessary to decide what one likes?

This is a 'Turn Up' +1

When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

A better approach may have been requests for images from Neo Green owners who may have the vent rings fitted.
