Default NON z51 Rear vent function.

I see the rear vents are blocked off in the on z51, any way to take that piece of plastic off… if so will that cool the rear differential/brakes?

No, there's no ducting to channel the air. And the rear brake ducts are under the car, the ones in the rear quarters are for the trans and diff on the Z51
