Nice vents! I had the same issue with mine. I took the molding off and painted the surround with under coating. It has worked for 2 months and many rains and washes. Just tape it off nice and straight and take your time. Hope this helps.

I followed the same write up. For the parts where turns on right angle I just cut the peices and pushed them together then dressed up the corner with liquid electrical tape lol. It looks good from a distance. I plan on redoing them a little bigger anyway.
