Coulndn't agree more, definitely a ballsy mod. Don't know that I'd ever consider taking a cutoff wheel to my fenders. Unless I had a spare set sitting ready to go on if I screwed up.

Nice Mod - My Opinion, I think they are ok , I would do them in color of car or black, if it was my choice.

i think it's a nice little accent piece. i don't see anything too ballsy about it, unless you've never tried anything like that, lol. nice work.

i like that you did it properly, and actually cut up your fenders. the minitruck you saw it on, would that be the green 'DIB' nissan hardbody? its one of the few nissans bodydropped on 22s, and they used that style fender vent

You did a nice job with the vents, but I don't like them on the car. They're out of place.

Nice mod!

I have considered the Lucerne vents but did not have your courage in establishing a layout pattern. The margin for error is very slight for the cuts.

I saw a very high buck '41 Willys at the spring Englishtown show with the same vents in place.

It is always of interest that many of those who critique the efforts others and say that they want to modify vehicles to be different are so concerned that they all turn out looking essentially the same.

I like it but one thing bothers me about it.

4 vents x2 sides = V8.
3 vents x2 sides = V6

so if you were to follow the spirit of Buick (were they came from)

shouldn't your car only have 2 on each side?
