I did a simplified version of this. I drilled a 1/2" hole in the top of my wheel well. There is normally a rubber grommet there.
It was done on the Superbird ( that is what those backwards facing scoops cover - the holes in the fenders )
Our cars dont get up enough speed to make use of the idea ( right ? ) but I did it just because I felt like it.
