Front fender vents

problem is that the top of our fenders is curved, so tough to find anything that would match that curve properly. that's why i like the first pic i posted - just several slashes across the fender, then bend them down.

Yeah I gave a better look at the pic, that would be the way to go true cut into vender luvers, like the old hot rod uses. That would flow, and old school hotrod fabricator should be able to do that. Isnt there an inner fender well would need some kind of venting as well to connect the 2 points to actually get the heat out?

Ya I agree, the problem is not skilled enough to cut and bend the fenders and make it look right without rewraping or repainting both fenders. I’m thinking the aluminum or ABS panels would take the fender shape with a enough rivets
