You would probrably be better off buying a carbon fiber hood and painting it.
the hoods on these cars are aluminum, i would imaging if someone were to start cutting holes into it the hood may start to develop creases or sunken areas.

Your talking about old school louvering right? I haven't seen that done in years but could be cool. Or just 5 or 6 bigger louvers on each side of the hood. Cant wait to see what you both come up with. |

I have stripes on my hood that I don't want to lose and I think they would look too butchered if put over those slots. I'm trying to figure out a way to either louver the sides or put inserts in the stripes. I kind of like these, even though [gasp] there for a Ford:  Or something like the ones on this hood, maybe 1 or 2 longer:  And no, not a fan of the Seibon hoods... |

Have you looked into Hines Performance Hex Vents.
They are the vents in the center of my hood.
