rear break duct
Does anybody have a picture of a spiral metallic grey vette with rear break ducts? I was thinking about getting them and want to see how it looks first. Please post pics.

Not too hard. Just a little nerve racking cutting big holes in the rocker panel of my $40K car

It took me about one and a half hours, used a roto zip, taped it off put the template on and cut, was scary but only took a few minutes. I think I spent more time taping and changing the blade.....

Where can I buy the vents? I'm thinking since my rocker panels are being repainted right now, I'd like to put 'em on.
