JP-R Hood pics

This hood looks great. I like the idea of fiberglass, being cheaper than carbon fiber, and the ease of color matching the paint. My only concern would be the side vents for someone with say K&N Typhoon intakes, as it appears the side vents, at least the closest to the front, would be directly over the air filters.

Rain issues?? Water dropping right down on the filters while the car isn't moving??

The only other hood I've seen with just the center vent in almost the identical position is the VIS style carbon fiber. But again i want to stick clear of carbon fiber.

Any feedback on rain with this hood & typhoon intakes? Any alternative fiberglass hood with the just the same center vent?

Looks good though!!
