Guess it depends on where you live. I am from colorado so snow melting would be my concern. In his case he will probably be fine. I was just curious on how he would design them, because I would love to put some of these in eventually and will need drip pans.

Look good, thing I learned about louvers over the years, is that placement is'nt critical, Vegas they'll most likely do fine in that position.

I am too late to the party!
I was gonna suggest that they seem a bit small, and perhaps aligning two of them to each side of the hood might look better.
I know you said you did not like the looks of the big ones that take up most of the hood, but I think two small ones on each side would look good.

Hey, they look really good. This is the same color as my Xj. I like the idea of the round holes instead of cutting out the whole size. I may just have to try this one out.
