I know a few members have made their own rain guards. If it doesn't have any, yes water will get through them. It "shouldn't" hurt anything but who knows. I know a few members you run the hex vents with no rain guards and their cars are fine.

More rain comes from the bottom. You'll be fine.

I have a bunch of holes in my hood. granted i dont run my car in the rain, however i wash it at least once a week in the summer and spray the engine down. No issues. Each of these kits come with water trays/deflectors as well.
These motors are pretty water tight, not like the old carberated motors back in the day. (Current photo of car in show doing some changes)
