Those with no turbo in their Stang don't understand that you can grill steaks under the hood. Drill all the holes you need. Most of them won't be able to see them once the green light comes on. As I understand the reasoning on this board...if it's functional, it ain't rice. Meltdown control is functional

The holes look like a shitty afterthought. I think you should do something similar to Dave's front bumper modification. His looks well thought out and flows quite well with the OEM front bumper.

There are other means of getting air there besides cutting round holes there. Get creative, cutting little circles isn't the only way. Where he has those holes you could cut out a solid flat oval and maybe outline it with something so it looks more "professional" rather than just.. holes.. just a simple idea, but in the end, you know as well as or better than anyone else, you have to make sacrafices to go fast, aesthetics is one of them.

^^ what I was going to say. Remember those old ram air ducts that go below the bumper? How about modding one of those to insert into a rectangle hole?

or mold it into the opening just below the bumper and channel it up (if room permits).
