Should't the middle vent be turned the other way?

Thinking the side pieces should be rotates 180 degrees too.
It'd match the curvatures on the hood

I really don't think so as you can see the opening of the louvers flow toward the windshield. I turn them around the louvers would actually catch to air not remove it. I may be wrong but I really don't think so. In checking out many of their pictures there some vent that are like the one I posted where the vent is larger at the front than the rear. I guess will see when eagle get's his mounted.

Now you guys can be the expert and tell me which direction is correct lol!

I saw that the louvers would be turned in the opposite direction, but the piece would flow with the hood better if it were turned around. Is it possible that they built the louvers backwards? Or is it that you placed them up side down? Shouldn't the louvers be pointing down into the hood and not sticking up? Like in this pic (looking from windshield down the hood).

It's hard to see from the pictures how you have them oriented.

Just wondering, not questioning you or the product. I am sure all will be clear once we see it on Eagles hood.

You are right about the direction of vents, looking at other products, they flow well with hood lines, and those 370 vents, if they are turned they will flow with our hoods as well.

Not if you flip the vents upside down. But yes the larger part goes upfront. Either way, I'm sure they gonna look awesome once installed. Do these close for washing?
