Gene was kind enough of trust me with one of his first sets of Z06 quarter panel vents to see if they'd fit a standard body car. Happy to say they do! Thanks Gene!
Total install for the drivers side was about an hour, the passenger side about 15 minutes. If I recall it's 12 torx screws on the drivers side and 8 on the passengers side (due to no screws around gas filler).
I just picked up the car 3 days ago, so I can't say if it has any impact on actual temps.
Install wasn't too difficult, but can be a bit scary at times. I'm not sure exactly how the quarter panel is attached, but if you remove the torx screws in the door sill (3) and back hatch area (4) and wheel well (1) the panel is able to pull from the top of the car, but only about 5-6 inches. This is where I was pretty worried I could snap the panel. If you don't pull it out far enough, you risk losing one of the nuts while loosening them. Pull too far you may damage the fender.
You use an 8mm wrench to remove the three nuts on the bottom holding the vent on. New one pops into place, replace the three nuts, and you're ready to go.
SFengineer, please feel free to post any information you'd like to add to that post. This will surely be a popular mod for many that want to have those Z06 vents.
Thank you for your purchase and for the post! This was a very nice customer to work with. Very patient, pleasant, etc. Thank you!
One of these is now on backorder. If you guys are interested in ordering a set please send an email to gene@cultragperformance.com and I will add you to the list when I get some in.
