Conceptually I absolutely love this. The vents just look a bit small on the massive F hood. But I would still do this myself...very nice job!

No, they're WedsSport SA-67Rs in the blue light chrome finish.

Yes, the vents are fully functional for drawing hot air from the engine bay. They also come with rain trays to funnel the rain to the side, so the rain does not get all over engine.

do the rain trays really keep all the rain out of the engine?

Great work. They look amazing on your car. I have been wanting to do something like this. I had found those vents the other day as a possible solution but the vents though cost as much as some hoods do.
