@ bpt323: I don't think I've been here long enough to have seen your old avatar. Were the vents in front of or behind the scoop?1990 Protege 4WD

Originally posted by bpt323 View PostMarlon, im all for adding vents with the hoodscoop. from a front look it turns out wicked. you'll likely scare anyone that catches a glimpse of you coming up behind them as well
anyone that is worried about water in the vents really doesn't have any first hand experience with them. i've run my car for 2 years now without the vent covers. rain, snow, sleet. you name it i've driven through it. car still runs fine & i've no cracking issues.
still undecided. I have a spare hood but would not want to cut it up, that's why I'm playing with this hood (with scoop). I also have the GT-R grill (fiberglass) which will somehow match the vents if ever

I decided to install the vents on a different hood but will not cut holes on it in the meantime as I try to get the correct measurements on where to place them.
I was wondering if anyone had measurements (as requested in the pix below) of how the vents were installed on the OEM sedan hood, like Jo's car here
installed the GT-R grill in the meantime

Marlon, these are the same measurements that Ryan and Jo used to put their vents on. This is a real GTR hood so the measurements are all correct from the factory.
