carbon mods bonnet vent anyone used this one?
if so how did you fit it?
i will be fitting to a fibreglass bonnet which will be painted. i was thinking i could fibre glass it flush into the bonnet with layers of fibreglass
underneath same as i done my bonnet bulge would the fibre stick to the carbon ok?
i am wanting to extract heat from the engine bay not force cold air but draw hot air out looking at the carbon mods vent i think it would work either
way depending which way round you mount ?

the best way to extract the heat is by venting the side panels and allwing the heat to exit.. We lowered the running temp by 10 degrees on a zetec
doing this. Check my archive for pictures

Was going to vent the side panels as well but also wanted a vent at the rear/top of the bonnet as well.
i intend on doing plenty trackdays so trying to cover all the bases
