Has anyone installed the Airdesign cut in fender vents?

Well I have the scoop too I think it looks pretty good though

That's the goofy hood scoop they make. https://airdesignusa.com/2019-2020-new-ram-1500-hood-scoop.html

Yeah, did some searching and found other pics. Remember it being posted before. Not a fan. Looks like AutoZone stick on.

Regarding the fender vents - could you just add some PPF & double sided tape to get the look without cutting? Or is it not a flat/contoured backside in relation to the fender?

I imagine they are designed to be attached with the hole cut out. Not sure if you could trim them down to be attached with couple sided tape

I don’t believe they could now that I see a photo from this angle. It clearly looks like part of the vent would enter through the newly cut hole. It does look nice when it’s painted to match, at least in this color though.

I had mine paint matched granite crystal and the top grill piece is gloss black so its more of a seamless oem look..but it's not like a cheap stick on auto zone product..extremely well made ..Just not your style I guess..you've got a nice rig ..love the color

Yes the vents are not flush they had functionality in mind

The vent actually goes into the fender 1 or 2 inches

Lol yeah I'm into the vent look I just have to get my nerve up to put a cut out tool to a nicely painted truck..we'll see

Are they functional, and will the accomplish anything? At freeway speeds the just might work.

I'm no engineer but obviously air gets rammed through the grill and radiator, blown by the fan over the engine and exits the vents...cool air in hot air out..seems plausable right?

Not really as that part of the fender isn't open into the engine bay. Purely cosmetic

It absolutely is..if you raise your hood and look up towards your windshield by the hood hinges there is a gaping hole you can stick you arm down in it and that's precisely where the hole is cut..so there will be air flow I'd send a picture of the hole I'm talking about when u get it back

Yes door rockers are paint matched and on ..will send you pics when I get my truck back

That's not open to the engine bay. I'd be surprised if there was any difference in under hood temps from them. Not saying they don't look decent, but to say they would help with under hood temps is a stretch if you are using that to try and convince people to get them
