Default Removing fender vents

What are you trying to do....remove under-hood heat, or just going for looks?

I think it would be fairly easy to cut out the size hole you want and attach stainless mesh with a solid stainless backer to hold in place. Bond some nylon bolts on the backside and use speed nuts to attach

to vent heat, hopefully reduce under hood pressure reducing lift, reduce air going under the car. The cowl scoop will be sealed to the TBI.
