Which vent are you talking about?

I can't check my van as I don't have a Caddy dash any more :lol:

Ah yeah I know the ones you mean, the little triangular type ones for demisting the windows, right?

You're probably better off removing and painting them. As the face is curved, you'll never get a smooth finish with a 3d printer (unless you've got a resin printer), so you'll be filling, sanding and painting them anyway.
