If 10 builders went in together.. what would everyone's share be in USD?

Please make sure you figure in enough to cover shipping within the 48 states.

OK, those aren't the ones I am talking about then. I am talking about part P.388 which is shown in the Prima catalog http://www.primaindustries.it/en/products/air-diffusion-systems/p388 properly shaped with chrome trim and appear to actually be identical to the OEM Murcielago LP640 air diffuser/dash vent (see below).

I still can't figure out the exact part because I don't know what the "S" column means or what the "painted soft touch" finish is.

Edit: It looks like they are saying they don't have any stock with the silver ring so we would be forced to get 65032 which has a black ring. Maybe we could add a dress ring later? It looks like these come in 50 packs. We probably couldn't even get 10 guys interested could we?

If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?

Thanks Tusabes. I will call the California location tomorrow. Did you order these? What was the price? Do they come with the chrome trim? Do you have pictures you can post? Do you know of anything else this place has that is OEM for an LP640?

I've seen those P.388 but have not been able to find anyone that sells them here.  Hopefully you will be successful.   If you do find them I'm in for 4.
Get them from the cananda or  California prevost bus parts supplier

The canada parts phone number is 1-800-463-8876, the part number is 830157.

There are different distributors throughout the U.S.
the California distributor  The number is: (800) 421-9958.

Maybe these are Diablo vents? I don't think they are Murcielago vents. They are definitely not LP640 vents. Ours don't have the  ::LAMBO2 symbol and they are not flat or inset, they have a round bevel outward. Even those Prima vents aren't an exact match for those Lamborghini vents pictured (the original is beveled inward). That said, we could use them in a pinch if we could get them in the U.S. from the manufacturer. I understand Prima Industries won't ship to the U.S. From what I understand, Euramtec is the U.S. distributor for Prima. Euramtec does not have an exact match for what we need.

This is close: http://www.euramtec.com/parts/e/e01/34011200.html

This is close: http://www.euramtec.com/parts/e/e01/34003410.html

In both cases, we would still need a chrome trim ring to get it closer to OEM.

The Prima P.388 with chrome ring sure looks like our vent to me. Maybe someone outside the U.S. would be willing to get some for us poor outcasts in the U.S.? I have contacted Prima just in case I get lucky. Their contact page has a sales rep for North America. I'll report back here on what I find.

The vents for the F-150 looks pretty clean!
I have a dream, that one day we will not be judged by the supplier of our kits but by the content of the build!
