X2 I have them on mine and I run about 30* cooler with my A/C on and I live In Las Vegas so it get hot. lol I also think they are for looks but they have a purpose. I sit at a red light and can see the heat pouring out.

Well they are for getting heat out weather your wheeling or not your wheeling. When I live it get 120* no problem so getting the heat out is the key.

Check this one out. I did the same and I love it. It cost about 15 bucks and took about maby an hour. And Im not really worried about water or mud. I live in Vegas so we dont get much rain as it is and I have covered my motor with mud with out the vents. lol
