do the other side of the hood, then take it to a fiber glass expert let him straight up the vents for you. ( i dnt know if there is enough space for fiber glass)

from far the vents look good.

lessons learned from this is (1) I should have moved it to the edge of the hump...I slighty cut into it. Aesthetically it would of look ten times better. (2) bending the flaps would be easier if I cuted/trimmed guide on the backside of the hood with a dremel. Would of helped bend the flap easier than using force. Other than that having the proper tools made it really easy to do this.

Next is similair style on the fenders like the GTR racecars..because I'm a ricer

It looks good, just needs some minor body work to clean it up. I think the vents should be facing the other way to expel heat, right now it looks like it's acting as a scoop which could also be functional?

Definelty needs work, I chipped so much paint...it's ugly up close. Haven't had time to clean it up...sanding

It's the same as the RS vents but not completely cut out. Performance wise I've seen a drastic drop in the time it takes for heat to dispensed from stand still to crusing.
