Is this the after picture, showing a ventilation hole that didn't previously exist? is that what I'm looking at? Interesting idea. I guess it lets heat and as well as cool air in.
Yes, non-ventilated fender wells will look just like the fender well that's in whatever car is currently sitting in your driveway. When the puller fan kicks on in a Cobra, that is located on the engine side of the radiator, the under hood heat literally billows out through those vents in to the wheel wells. That modification is not terribly difficult and I would bet that FFR probably sells them to fit.
