Did you have to do anything after cutting the fender to prevent it from rusting where you could see bare metal? Just curious how that works or if it's needed.. Thanks.

Also, anyone got any pics of a black Camaro with them? Do they stand out as much as they do on the other colors? I tried searching but couldn't find these on black, found other types just looking for this specific type though.

Also, I see in both sets of pics that the person is working on a black panel. Is it safe to assume those are practice pieces and that I dont need to remove my fender?

dang. As always Lupe, your Camaro is my favorite of all time! I wish I had the money and skill to make mine like yours!

hello, the black what a test run just to make sure i was going to like the look of the vent on the fender, it was also good practice:). When i did them on the car, i did not have to remove the fender. set the template, trace, cut, prime, install :)

Here are a couple pics,can't think of anything you haven't covered really,except I don't have body and limited mech. experience.First time I've cut on a car,so of course I was nervous,but once I started there was no turning back.No precise measuring,lined up template to mid body line and fender/door...you know the rest.I installed the 3dcarbon bodykit as well.

WOW, looks great.

Does anyone have pictures of these on a car with no GFX?

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but i'm also curious if anyone has any pictures of the vents on cars with no GFX
