Arrow Venting hood

i know guy that will put luvers in anything for $1.50 per luver. so i was thinking about putting one for my intake on the turbo, but im afraid of getting water in there. also, i want to put some facing the other way to so i can keep engine bay temps down.

i know i would have to paint my hood again but thats no big deal.

Let me know what you think

Jay

hood with vents...?

I have an aerogear predator hood. there are good and bad things about it. when you go like 80 or more, the hood starts to lift up. water leaks in and gets everything dirty. but, it looks good as hell and the car never runs hot.
let me know if you need any more info.

soon...

2fast4y0u:
I am still working on my car, no pics as of yet. i'm waiting to put on my Greddy Front Lower Spoiler. THen I'll have some pics. the hood doesn't look bad. Like you said though, water getting down here it is not suppose to directly leak onto. Same idea with the new Subaru WRX's, that is why they intercooler is right there on top getting all that filtered air. I went the 0pposite route to your car, Black car, black/charcoal interior, black rims...
PHAT!

well you could just blend the paint that will be messed up, but it will look better to do the whole hood.
