Default Any ideas on how to make bigger "perfect" speedholes / air diffusers?

I made some speedholes on the rear bumper of my eg, a while back ago. I'd say there about the size of the circle...of the (door **** circle that is put into the door) about 3" inches all around...perfect circles. The problem is i want 4-5" speedholes...does anybody have a good way to make perfect ones?

Here is my car w/ speedholes

speedholes reminds me of the simpsons where the mob wanted homer dead. I would like to help you out, but making a circle isnt exactly brain surgery and you were talking about getting stolen **** in the other thread...so...

trace a CD? that is what 3 1/2 diameter. WAY bigger than you will ever need. i dont think they are going to help you much. before you cut bigger holes in your bumper, take it off, and drive w/o one and see if it is noticably faster than with it on....you might not gain anything from bigger holes. better yet, track test it. one pass with it on, one w/o

first off.. you are a ******* idiot.. if you want bigger holes in your bumper(that look like ****, none the less) then cut bigger ******* holes.. why the **** would you need to start a ******* thread on this?

second off.. if you know of someone who is stealing cars/motors you should turn them in..
