THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL HOOD!!!!

i really want to buy the varis hood just like this but .... should i be worried if i have a SRI K&N Typhoon intake (filters pretty much wide open in bay) in terms of heavy rain and whatnot that I get every now and then here in South Carolina?

nope... no need at all... fitment is dead on... and you use factory latches.... secures real nice.

and if you wanna open the rain gutter compartments for a track day you absolutely can 4 bolts hold each compartment in place
