Air intake grille?
I'm supposed to be picking up a 2001 Z06 in the AM. I thought there were some sort of mesh or grille that covered the opening's in the bottom of the front fascia for brake cooling.
There are none on this one, just the holes
Need some real quick answers if poss

It has the mesh screens next to the parking lights. The mesh screens feed the engine area. The openings below the mesh screens are used for the front brake cooling and they do not have screens. It should look like this:

The mesh is not on the brake ducts (outer corners) - as you can see in the above photo, it's on the center intake ducts.
Of course the other cues are the red brake calipers, the rear brake ducts in front of the wheels, the fact that it's a 2001 hardtop body-style with the all-important "S" in the VIN position #8... and that it goes like stink! :smash:

Yes, there are mesh grilles in the vent holes in the front facia...
Check the VIN number to be sure it's a real Z06.
