Default Vented my hood!

Got the idea from a guy on FB. Got the center vent from Amazon for $103. I need to put some more screws but this looks better than the scoop i had.

It's only really good cosmetically, the idea of putting the vents at the rear of the hood actually has a purpose because that is where the heat build up is.

the sides vents are off a grand prix not lumina. the only hood vents i would put on my xj would be the lebaron/new yorker. just my taste of hood vents that i like i guess.

I like it, looks tough. Need to get rid of the chrome grille now and put a black one on there to match.
