I think these vents look amazing and I can tell thebventing would be great but I dont want to hack up my fender... I also have clear film on the entire fender as well.

The other parts would sell. There is a bunch of us wanting those parts but I get financial wise setting them up.

No offense but this is a product that is about function over form even though it looks amazing. You could buy another set of fenders to hack up!

Look how well the TrackSpec hood vents went over, and those required cutting. So I don't think cutting will be a deal breaker.

@FE Design, How are these installing, did I miss this? How are you attaching them to the fender?

Here's a sneak peek at the installation for the Fender Vents for the prototype:

(1) Align 3D Template to fender.
(2) Cut the fender with rotary cutting tool. (i.e. Dremel, or cut off wheel). There's plenty of material the flange of the Vent covers. If you take your time here, it's pretty straight forward
(3) Optional: Spray paint exposed area
(4) Optional: Modify Fender Liner (only rear sections) with shears, it's relatively easy to cut
(5) Attachment of Fender Vents. (Choice of drill and use hardware i.e. Rivets, or Round Head screws or permanently bond to fender with epoxy, etc)
