Exactly my concerns also, its just theirs a hood on the car for a reason, probably to keep water and other harmful things out of the engine.

Some cars like Subies and Evo's have detachable panels that attach under the vents... I'm not sure Seibon does this for the 370z models, but I dunno who does make them?

Not a noob question, since cold water is bad for a hot running engine, specially for the alternator. Some people seal them and paint the grill black.
