Went for a drive in the rain today. Only way to test without a wind tunnel. Works like it should. Zero spray from front wheel well, all out the top of the fender and the side vents.
Total mess on the sides of the car.
Poor mans CFD!

They do look great on your car. We were just discussing something like this on Blucifer for the upcoming run. We were thinking more along the style of the Gen 5 ACR wheel well vents which would be on top of the fenders but I kind of like the look of yours better.

I vented mine back in about '01. Brake cooling improved tremendously. About 4 years ago, I found the side flap seal to finish out the holes. I figured I wanted to give both the wheel wells and the engine bay some room to bleed excess pressure. The split is about 50/50.
