Default Rear Wheel Liner Brake Cooling Duct Template

I am looking for a template to cut the rear wheel liner so I can add the brake cooling duct....just to hesitant to start cutting the wheel liner.

Be best if someone has a broken wheel liner with the OEM cutout; could cut out a portion of it so I could make a template.

I have tried (a little) to hold the duct and trace it, but to much movement.

Appreciate any hints or insight or technique.

Thanks

Don't quote me on this, but I believe there is an outline on the liner already as it is the same as Z06 but was left uncut for non Z06 cars. (If I understood your dilema correctly.)

When I bought a replacement rear wheel well liner, it did have the area for the brake duct marked if you were installing on a Z06.

I removed my inner liners a LONG time ago, in order to put some of the Frost King insulation on the inner wheel wells. (Remember when THAT was the rage??) Anyway, I seem to recall seeing the outline scribed on the liners.

I had heard about the outline being there so I removed one of the liners and there was no outline that I could see/find. I looked on both sides and found nothing. This is why I am needing a template.
