I would hate to see the first meet with a big dumping like yesterday.

Four grown men crying, including Rob. Better get working on the covers like i told Rob. Easy on and off.

First $150 takes the six vented Berlina one I have in the Garage. It was vented and then freshly painted.

I got the velcro, I just need some visualization help on what material and what kind of shield shapes to make.

Would it be just flat blanks that I cut to shape and then run velcro along the edges to "seal" the vents or do we devise some kind of system to trail the water that comes in the hood to an open area in the engine compartment.

Maybe I am overthunkin' the situmawayshun!

that is an awful nice price on the hood. I would hate to think that the rest of us venting our hoods caused you not to want yours. Say it aint so Joe!!!

No after doing mine I realized I liked my Veilside better. I don't need more parts lying around.

Have to let one of the N/A guys answer that one

Also, slight correction. My 40 degree temp drop wasn't under hood temp, it was coolant temp, which means my underhood drop was even more.
