I want to get the extreme gt hood with the vents in it but want to know if I will run into any problems with water getting in the engine bay when it rains. I was told it would be ok. Or if theres a good way to cover up the vents so water doesn't get in. Heres a picture of the hood. TIA

grrrr! I have been wanting this hood since before I even got an eclipse!!! You people... trying to be like me and all!
ehh...oh well, I can't afford any mods for a loooooooong time, so I guess I will get beat to the hood. Whoever gets it, congrats! I think it's very unique!
About the water thing... I wouldn't worry about it...water gets up on your engine all of the time in heavy rain...

Yeah I've liked this hood for a while but it was too expensive, Well I called a local shop and they can get them for a little bit more than the oem style so I gotta get it. But you guys think it will be all right getting wet over the valve cover and plugs.
