The way you are describing it, though... the channels sound like something I could fab on my own with a little fiberglass as an add-on to the underside. I wonder if anyone has one of the said $$$ hoods that I could take a look at locally...

Not really worried about moisture, I just like the idea of not immediately having a filthy engine compartment every time I get caught in the rain.... point taken about defeating the purpose though. It will take some thought.

Rain guards are supposed to be removable, otherwise . . . whats the point? Put them on when bumming around in bad whether, remove them when you need to go fast

Rain CHANNELs, however . . . obviously are not removable if they're molded

Yup! I am pretty sure I can fab some channels to dump water down the gap in front of the motor and the positioning of these vents leads me to believe they will still be effective this way.

I'm not a fan of adding additional maintenance items to the car, so anything I would have to take on and off is a non-starter if I can do it differently.

This is what I meant about rain guards. Something removable, so I can leave them on when it is raining.

and count me in, I should check if he ships internationally or I should use forward mail service, will check if anybody in my local 370z group would be interested.
