OP why not consider a vented hood instead. These look really good/aggressive too and serve a purpose.

Actually i was able to post pictures up that i took earlier today. Note that emblem was poorly plasti-dipped when I first tried without any knowledge, then this was right before I got my chrome Z emblems installed front/rear and replacing 370Z with Fairlady Z.

I am interested to see/understand how you direct the air from the vent to the undercar and brakes.

Detailed pictures pls...

I know you were saying you want to get more education on motor performance, so I thought you should know that venting air underneath your car is bad as it creates pressure and lift underneath your car (unless you have a massive diffuser on the back which will channel that pressure to create negative lift aka downforce). Now if you had ducts from those vents to your brakes and not just to the general underneath portion of your car, then that is a good thing. Saying this all as just an FYI.

Your car looks nice btw. I think a blacked out look would look really sick (meaning rims and handles should be all black) since you're already almost blacked out.

Actually it looks pretty badass. I like it being blacked out. But the non-functional hood scoop is just not my cup of tea.

Thanks for being straight up with me. And thanks for the compliment. I know i'm still a noobie and you're probably right about what you said. I'm already kind of laughing at myself but I could make it benefit performance by cutting out the bottom to allow airflow to the engine but nehh.. Probably going to keep it on for a year or so then replace it with a Hybrid FRP Seibon Hood with vents.
