I so want one but sooo broke right now :S

Thanks guys for all your help!

Yes, sir. VIS Terminator.

If you want maximum cooling the VIS does the trick. Your engine bay will get water and other stuff on it because of the openings.

Any vented hoods for the Z with rain guards?

Hotrodz · 06-02-2016, 08:34 PM

Some come with covers that you can attach and the more expensive JDM hoods have built in drain gutters.

VIS has built in rain guards too

Quick question to all who has aftermarket hoods, do you guys use hood struts or the stock stick thingy to hold up your hood ?

Lol, I wonder if Nissan has a part number for stock stick thingy's?

Jk bro, i would have probably described it the same way.

Thanks for all the help so far guys!

Yup. . I have them but because I used them with my stock hood first. Not necessary but handy.
