I have added a few photos of both the front and rear trunks along with some underneath photos and a close up of the vent area so you can see how the oil cooler's fit in them. Also in the front trunk area you can see the stainless steel Y duct that I made and installed for additional down force and front brake cooling. The air enters via the front bumper and exits out of the inner front fender wells on to the front calipers.
