How is this for a front fender tail repair?

That is a good way to ventilate the fender tail support. Maybe they are onto something.

Looks like a new mod for the cold air return on the ac system...

thats funny, I saw one around town that had the rear half of the fender done up in diamond plate.

after I repaired the inner brace and the skin on my 65 fenders, I drilled a 1/2 hole in the bottom of the brace in hopes that it will no longer retain dirt and water.

Uh, maybe its for venting those high performance drum brakes going in reverse. hahahaha

They forgot to chrome the vent. All the lowriders around here have chrome vent's on the fender.
