Had busy day.

The splitter is almost finished. Have to figure out a splash shield in the fender well. Have almost one FE Design fender vent installed. The hole is cut, trimmed, vent fitted, inside of the fender painted black. What is left is to drill the mounting holes and bolt down, wax fender. Then start on the other side.

Document the fender vent install. I have mine to do here very shortly.

Position carefully. I got mine up a little too high on the fender. I'm about 1 1/2" down from the top roll of the fender. Maybe should have been down about 2 1/2 ". Everything fits flush but the bottom curve of the vent. Have about 1/4"gap that I have to play with. And cut the outside edge of the temp plate. Even doing that. I still had to made the hole bigger to get the vent into the hole.

Do you have the temp plates?

yeah, I have the 3d printed templates. I was holding the template up the other day looking for a good position. I was about where you were, 1.5" from the top. Ill look into dropping it a bit.

I typed this wrong. It should be the inside of the temp plate, on the outside of your mark.

I was looking at Derrago's(sp?) install and it looks like he may be a bit higher up maybe ~1" from the top.
I am going to go to the garage and look at it now.
