Anyone cut had "vent" holes cut in a stock hood before. I've seen it done on a 350z hood and it looked impressive. Anyone done this on a g35, similar to a top secret hood style?

 

Have fun with that, Im sure it will look great...lol

ouch, by the time you get that done and repainted...might as well buy a new hood.

 

diesel1 had a hood scoop molded into his stock hood.

 

if you wanna do the nismo hood vents, then here is the stencil

Hero, you're the man! Not sure if I could do it myself, I tend to mess up on stuff thats not broken!

 

one of the guys on the z forum said that as long as you have a steady hand, patience, and a dremel, then you can cut the vents in your hood...just takes time.

i'd take mine to a shop, tho.

i think i'll be doing this next summer...when i have the time to drop my car at the body shop for an extended period of time.

i'd MUCH rather have a modified stock hood then a c/f hood.

 

I had a hood for a customer stamped in louvers

looks kind of like some vents you'd see on an air conditioner on top of a house. to each his own...

 

We made this at our shop to house the stillen stage 4 supercharger

someone needs to photochop this

 

that hood is nice, a little too camaro for me, but the gauges in the hood cowling make it worth while for me
