I need to replace the bonnet vents on my V8 Vantage due to discolouring, where’s the best place to go without having to remortgage my house by going to MD, seen some online for sale, but not sure on quality.

What about painting them yourself? They are fairly easy to remove. A can of a good weatherproof paint will do.

On my first Vantage they were tired after about 7 yrs so I sprayed with some satin black smooth hammerite, along with the rear undertray grilles. Worked a treat and still looked like new couple of years later when traded in.

Assuming it’s a VH car, I never liked the mesh ones and fitted honeycomb items from astondiy

The above vents look fantastic, I would also say better than stock, from here at least.

Have you got a photo of both of them in the bonnet? looks good.
