Hey, that looks pretty good. I'm not sure how I feel about the scoop though.... Is water going to be draining straight down into your engine bay?

i have the same hood!

theres actually a little lip so water doesn't just go down into it. then when u drive it gets blown off, its kind of weird

yeah ther is a little lip there for when you drive but what about for when your car parked and its raining hard? I think im going to seal the hole and run few small tubes under it and position them away from the engine like to the bumper or something

yeah, that's what I was wondering. Sitting and Rain and stuff. But that seems like a pretty good idea to seal it and run drain lines down. Hopfully you don't park under trees often, otherwise you'll get plugged up with leaves all the time. ha
