Our car that gets driven often on the road and tracked often fortunately hasn't seen debris kicked up through the vents.

Closest experience was driving thru a huge pool of water at Laguna Seca and water shot up thru the vents at slow speed. Debris usually has some weight to it and kicks back towards the door than up.
Do you all have a picture of how your fender liners are modified? I'd really hate to remove mine completely because I've experienced the aftermath of a fender liner-less car and not trying to go that route again if necessary...

I have asked FE for some assistance with this. Hopefully they will provide us with some information.

Here's a picture of the fender liner on the Z. Only the rear half of the fender liner needs to be modified. With shears, it's relatively easy to cut thru, and there are existing fold lines that makes it easy to cut straight to follow.
