Finally had some time to go install the prototype drop vents at Garage Star. I wanted to install them before a track day so that we could test them in race conditions.
First thing we did was see where we wanted it to lay without the hood in the way. This allowed us to make sure there would be clearance, we decided to place it about here.
my friends Chris and Kulana were very helpful in finding the exact places to cut etc as seen below:

we were checking how much we needed to cut etc...
once everything was in place it was time to rivet it down, Chris can be seen in this picture spacing out the rivets.

We will be testing this hood with some minor changes to the layout of it, we want to make sure it works in this position, if necessary we are able to move it back a little bit. I really couldnt have done it without these guys, they gave up a lot of time on a sunday to help me do the car.
