I've never seen the rain guards, can you post a pic of your setup porfavor?

Default No problems with the TS CF hood.

Hello Clon3,

I have the Seibon TS CF hood on my 07 Z.

It has gone through some light to heavy rain without any problems.

I did take a few minutes to tape up the wiring to the MAF.

I have no negative rain/water issues to report.

Eric at DriveLine Motoring provides some great deals on the CF hoods. www.drivelinestore.com

I also recommend hood pins for any CF/Fiberglass hood, safety first.
DriveLine Motoring sells Aerocatch Hood Latches and Password JDM mounts(for an easier install).

I am running Stillen Gen 1 intakes.






I have not had any problems.







I hope this helps,
Lboy06.

No issues with the rain or washing except keeping the eng bay clean from water spots.
