Talking GT3 Radiator vent installed and added some spacers

Have to thank Joel Pirela for sending me the template, would have been so difficult cutting into the bumper without it. Very kind of you sir and greatly appreciated!!



I put it pretty close the hood after doing some research on how it looked on a GT3.



Ready to get painted at the body shop!



Decided to move the RSS 18mm Spacer to the front and added some 25mm to the rear. Pretty happy with the results for now. Going to order some 20" wheels with a much more aggressive offset in the future though.

Looks great - nice work. Did we ever find out if the vent is for aerodynamics (more downforce) or is it for cooling, or both??

I would say it's just for cooling, but I can see if the air goes through the mouth then exit's through the radiator vent that would produce some downforce i would think.
