I'm still partial to that single hood vent on the seibon but I want to see it in person on a car before I pull the trigger.

Are there caps you can put on those vents? If it were to rain, you'd be dumping water straight into the engine bay wouldn't you?

I like the look though. Subtle enough.

What are we talking price-wise?

I'm interested but I'd definitely want black plastic(?) plugs or something in case of downpour. Put me down as someone who'd want one.

I would be interested. Though who is going to be making it? Will it be a factory hood mod?

I'm interested too. Is it a whole hood replacement or a mod? I'm not worried about rain.
