Looking around for hoods right now to keep temps down. How did you go about making your vents? took a dremel to town after maping it out?

Not a lot going on. Made new flat bottom and diffuser in my down time, but most of my effort lately has been on building a couple of lemons cars. Two z32s.

Yep. Then a torch and sheet metal pliers, then tacked little endplates on each fin. That was the most tedious part by far.

I was debating making some molds and selling cf/frp versions of the vents. Think anyone be interested?

If you can make a mold, I have a good friend that is composites guy that builds Indy stuff. He can make high quality pre preg parts.... Just saying

Awesome build, I'm still catching up on it. Looking into eventually jumping into GTA myself.
