Fakery - scoops, fender vents, diffuser

[WinstonWolf]

I know that you can mod the hood scoops to make them somewhat functional, but what about the fender vents? and what about the fake rear diffuser?

I can't stand fake stuff on cars and I haven't gotten around to opening the scoops up since I've had the car but I will soon. It cheapens the car IMO to have a bunch of fakery on it.

around here there are "stick on" fender vents that ppl put on their cars to make them look like bimmers or something and they're hideous. i'll be damned if i want a factory version of that on my rizz-ide!!!

Yeah, we need something for the fender vents for sure, actual vents would be nice :)

Who's going to be the first to put a drill bit to good use?

what exactly would drilling hole them do for you...?

i mean let's get real... they look good and i hardly think anyone thinks you're trying to fool anyone with them...

What do you do with the hood vents ?

What do you do with the hood vents ?

Remove rubber from hood and black plastic off the back of the vent.

And that just vents air in to the engine bay or is there a mod you do to the intake ?

Sadly, my handiwork was smeared all over the road on 1/17/09. :p :hang:

If you hit another car hard enough, they pop right off.:p

[EcoBrick Bob]

The rectangular drill bits I have used required a very steady hand....especially on square holes.

Agreed, seems that the woman who smeared that handiwork finished the job pretty thoroughly eh? :)

How does the rain effect the engine?

[TrUcKeR]

it makes it wet.

It doesn't, unless you have a certain style intake.
