I don't think any wind tunnel style testing has been done on any fenders for the 370 but here is another option.

Wow both look great just curious how functional they are. I am planning on building mine for the track and I want to get the heat from the brakes out of the wheel well. I have come up with a few ideas on how to do this but if some one has already figured it out then no need to reinvent the wheel.

I've seen vented fender lines done by a few members here. One just drilled holes, another cut a hole and used stock audi (i think it was audi) vented liner and riveted it in place. Do that and the stillen brake cooler kit, combined with one of these fender choices and you may have something.
