I'm currently more worried about that part as I'm not too fond of just glueing the vents to the fender.
Now imagine cutting all excess fender off on the inside and just letting little noses for the clips stand... one might then need to cut the garnish in the same way and hope that there will be enough space left between the visible outside of the garnish and the inner clips.
Even if that works (and, though it'll need some skill sounds very possible) this would not guarantee a good finished look. Very iffy.
However, if you guys CAD sth. like that up I'll be the first one interested.
Or maybe I'll visit a body shop for that...

This is one of the designs we came up with. It's just a photoshop, no cad designs for it yet, but the process is started. The idea is to be functional , so this side vent would actually be a vent into the engine bay area. Obviously, that doesn't address the other concerns of such a vent, such as its effectiveness, but it would be an actual open vent nonetheless.
