We are trying to extend our products out to stocks 370z (even 350z community), which is why we decided to launch the Fender Vent into production.

We'd love to tackle projects like the ones mentioned, if we can gather enough interested folks, hit us up (DM or email). In order for us to make something that's cost effective (or even to break even), we cannot have just a few headcount.

placed my order, although it doesn't look like we'll hit 30 :c, those of you who are on the fence, DO IT! it's a great deal

I think it might help seeing these on a street car, not on a race car. Once one of you posts pics, the number of orders may increase.

LMAO, this is cracks me up. This is what happened to to 4x4 trucks. Form superseded function and now you have to pay $70k to get fully functional 4x4!

The issue is this the first production run a the only vents are on the owners race car. Not sure why it would make difference. They look awesome on a racecar why not a street car?

I think the paint scheme might change the lines a bit, that's all.

I actually they would look better, just like the pictures you posted of the Porsche!

Here’s a picture of the fender vents on the 370z before the wrap

So what’s the count up to now?

Laomatik · 07-04-2018, 11:02 AM

Hi all and happy July 4th, thank you all for your support - we are at a total of 17 units, past our half way point. We still have a bit to go for our goal of 30 units.

Even though we're under our goal right now, I am contemplating of moving forward with making the machined molds and getting a 1st sample while keeping the bundle deals going to gain more users for another month just to keep momentum going because I know a lot of people want to see this project through (including myself).

Stay tuned, I'll keep everyone posted.

Thank you everyone for the support in kickstarting this Fender Vent project. We did not hit our minimum quantity but we have a plan to move forward. Stay tuned, we should have an update Friday.

Furthermore, we created a blog section on our webpage FE-Designs.com for anyone to follow up on the status of this project. We will do our best in posting here as well as other social media like Instagram and Facebook.
