Default Do all 05 GTO's have the vents on the fenders.

I went by a dealer today to pick up some parts and they had a GTO out front with some chrome wheels(didn't like them) and the fenders had 3 little vent holes in them. I was curious as if these came on all the 05's. If they did or didn't I would still buy a GTO if I was looking for a car right now.

On the fenders referring to the bottom rocker just behind the front tire? If that's it... that's part of the SAP.

These vents I was talking about are on the top of the fenders like M3 Vents on their fenders.

Yep he's in GA and I bet money he went to Carl Black in Roswell - which is where Precribed Performance is located.

This will make your GTO look like your Grand Dad's Buick.

Ugh, not feelin it at all... The shaker hood is a neat idea but just doesnt fit the lines of the car quite like it should. For the kind of money they likely want for it, i'll pass thanks.

You are correct. That is where I went and those are the fenders. The car in the above link has different wheels than the one I saw. I like the above wheels better. I had to go all the way over there from Loganville to pick up 2 $4 o-rings so Ken could put in my LS6 oil pump. That's a long drive for a part like that. All the other dealers around here were closed or didn't have them.
Jfulcher you enjoying those Kook's? I bet that GTO sounds real mean now. Are you going to the F-body Gathering?

Planning on going with a Futral more than likely. Just have to decide which #.. At first I was thinking Heads and Cam, but I can make some pretty respectable numbers with just a cam.. How is your F10?

Sorry took so long to reply. Computer went down. I'm using a friends now. I'm loving the F10. Can't believe the difference. Haven't driven the car alot since it got done just to work. I'm getting my TB done now and that will be my last mod for a while unless I start on suspension. Will be getting a Futral mail tune in March then off to the dyno.
