The Ferrari has it built in more than just vents, it's a combination of a lot of flexible and variable speed aerodynamics that makes real down force. If you just turned where most people had their brake cooling ducts into vents to the fender, I can't see just that, even with several other front end mods giving any appreciable downforce unless you are an aerodynamics engineer and/or are a part of the more money than brains club to have something made that actually works

Not asking how, asking more for looks. Install the S206 vents.

We don't really test for custom splitters or all the aftermarket wings. We just do it. Like I did with my custom hood vent. If any car can build pressure within the wheel well, venting it anyway can be beneficial. I understand speed though. But most tracks we can get to say 150mph so ill take and down force I can get.
