^^ very good point. I have had vented hoods on both my Zs. My 350z is barely driven so no problem. My 370z is not a DD by any means at all, but even with every single other factory panel in place (all the underbody ones and liners etc etc), my engine bay is pretttty damn dirty. no rust or anything, but it doesnt look all minty fresh like a new car

Naca Ducts ftw.
Thats pretty much the only body work mod I am considering except for repainting the whole car thanks to the crappy paint nissan put on our otherwise wonderful cars.

You have me interested, do you guys think it would be difficult to modify a stock hood and give it vents as follows? Is this something a quality bodyshop could do?

Let me know if you want us to make you this one-off hood ;)
