I also did a mod over the weekend/last week that's a little less common. This allows heat to be pushed out the fenders. A buddy did it and it really does work.

I was thinking about this tooo but I'd have to buy new fender garnishes, the stock FRS ones are completely sealed off. Any photos of what you cut inside? i can look at old threads, just curious

Always loved this idea, but is there drainage for rain/water to escape down there?

It would just go inside the fender. There is still stuff behind that vent cover that's in the way. It just allows heat to escape from the engine bay for racing.

Also, rain for the car?

GR86 transmission, new flywheel and South Bend Stage 3 Endurance clutch. Now I should be able to use that 14psi tune (after break in of course). WOOT!

So far it's a game changer, well worth the upfront cost
