Also.. https://www.nengun.com/prova/fender-vent-emblem But if you can offer it for cheaper I think you may have a business on your hands. |

If you want to be a vendor or sell a service then you should contact the mods so you don’t get banned for possibly violating the forum rules.

Offering a DIY kit that includes the vent mesh, adhesive, and cutting template with instructions for less than 60.00 might capture a nice market.
I absolutely love my GT mesh from customcargrills.com. The amount of heat that pours out of these small vents will surprise you too. Would definitely consider these a smart option if boosted.

I was looking at my 16 BRZ, seems like I would need to cut metal to vent through the fender garnish. I am wondering about cutting some metal out in between the clips and then trying to slot or putt small pin holes in the black area of the garnish. If it looks like crap then I have to cut more out and put in some grill material. What do you think? Crazy, stupid, not worth it for minimal heat loss?

My temp probe is not long enough, but it would be best to take temp measurements at different places in the engine bay. Before and after.

Interested as well, though in less apt to be cutting the metal behind it unless the cooling benefits are significant
