I'm also afraid of getting the vented hood as mine is a daily. Don't want heaps of water on the engine bay.

I'd be interested to see this as well, I've tried finding pictures of them, but no luck.

Love that hood.

I've been considering getting a CF hood but for some reason, I always thought it wouldn't work with mag black

^ on the contrary this black Z blends well with the CF hood.

Never had an issue with rain in engine bay.

I think it would be similar to this.

Pictured is Fly1 AMS hood.

Thanks for those! I've always wondered how that worked. Where does the rain drain?

Knowing this puts a vented hood back on my radar... I've always assumed my engine compartment would get filthy.

Those pics are from Jerrydeluxe. He'd be the best person to ask.

Seibon has a different system. They are removable.

Have you noticed better cooling after you install the hood?

I'd like to know this as well

Anyone know if having to re-clear the CF hood would be remedied by a clear bra?
