Default Vent on the front hood

Will that screw up anything below the hood in a rain? or it wont affect anything? I like to get a new CF hood (seibon VT, etc) but I just want to make sure...since it rains a lot here.

Thanks all!

If you buy a new hood with vent, you can get "rain guards" I heard you can buy them or it comes with the hood.. make sure you ask them about it before you buy them... If there are a lot of vents, I am sure it will affect your engine somehow.
