"The front fender air extractor, is the vent is located in a depressed area of the housing, in kind of a backward scoop. This design takes advantage of the "Venturi" effect, using air flowing across the air extractor to create a low pressure area, thereby drawing air out of the extractor. This results in something for nothing. High pressure air is given a pathway out of the engine compartment and at speed, a low drag port is molded into the side of the car which naturally aids in air removal."
The vents added at least 10 WHP and 30 MPH to the top speed (more if you had the stickers)............

Very well. I find this information acceptable enough to concede the fender vent point in this particular situation.
What if the giant Daytona wing? Or your very own chrome exhaust extensions? I've seen some on FRSs in various configurations and everyone freaked out.
