Show me your Bonnet/body/nosecone Vents/Ducts
OOPS posted without a message LOL
As the title really Im looking for ideas to get cool air into the engine bay/throttle bodies intake and exhaust areas. Underbonnet is too hot.
IMHO.
I don't like the look of the big filters through the side jobbies ( and it'd weaken my bonnet as i only have 20mm at the nosecone end).
Looking for ideas like Naca Ducts or rs turbo bonnet vents. That sort of thing.
Thanks in advance folks.

If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Just put one in the nose of mine ducted towards the turbo to cool things down a bit almost identical to afj's allot cheaper though it even has
the same imperfections wonder how that happened 
also ducted side panels to get the heat out

mine at the moment. Was originally for feeding air to my intercooler but now not needed so might channel it into the air box or get round to fitting
my new nose cone.
Also got to fit my new bonnet which will take car of the air to the filter.
 
vents
Sorry about my spelling, im an engineer and only work in numbers.

Probably enough to make a keyring or two
That was made out of the last two bits i had left over from the half doors. If you can wait till winter i should have some leftovers from my next
carbon project! But im not telling what it is going to let Alan guess again

The one on the side is air to the Air filter which lives in the footwell. The ones at the back of the bonnet are Metro,

Nice steve c.
This is the sort of idea I'mm looking for now. Ready made and cheap from the scrappies type vents like the metro one's you've
used.
Keep em coming folks you're giving me ideas all the time.
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.
