| Paul has answered that somewhere already. (did someone say search feature?) I think in a nutshell it had something to do with the car being molded very quickly at one time. Paul?

| Several ways, I suppose. You could carve them in using a dremel or a router or whatever. You could also sculpt your own out of whatever materials you prefer, pull a mold and then a part just like other body mods.

I added 1 3/4 in. to your Cad + moved the angle down at the small vents and added one more slot. Its not spot on but I think they will look good.

I thought the outline was correct but was just short one vent. What I did was get the outline and the position of the first and last vent in the correct locations and then I equally spaced the remaining vents. Unfortunately, SOMEONE told me the wrong number  (I guess I could have counted them myself)
