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?

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.
