yea....i just might Spray it black myself.

SummoneR · 05-22-2012, 07:28 PM

Yeah I figured they could at least ask people what color they want the mesh... Color matched seems odd to me. Poweder coated black would be nice.

Hex Vents Installed Today!!

Much much easier install then the T3 Ports

Took the hood off and made the marks for the drilling points

Cutting begining!

Both holes cut out!

Test Fitting......All good

TRC-SS · 05-23-2012, 10:21 PM

Then had to cut out the liner!

And on the car!!

Better Day shots TOMORROW!!!

SummoneR · 05-24-2012, 04:29 AM

WOW It just looks vicious!!! Very nice work! I like the tool you used to cut the hole, I considered using my dremel because I do not have a Jigsaw.

TRC-SS · 05-24-2012, 07:47 PM

Thanks bud....We try using a jigsaw and this Milwaukee tool was 100% better and much smoother. This is basically the exact same thing as a dremel. Make sure you get two packs of the rotary bits. They go fast!

Nice Camaro Porn shots taken today!!

PAUL SS · 05-24-2012, 07:57 PM
