Different bonnet vent variations?
Discussion
could people please post up some pictures on different bonnet vent variations?
we need to get ours painted because of paint bubbling so thought,the cars gettin very warm in traffic,surely a vent would help heat to escape.
wouldnt mind scoop or vent pic's it's just to help us make up our mind.
thanks in advance Dan

i wouldnt really want to copy B0OST EM's bonnet vent's we were only thinking about some cheap vents obviously not the kid's rs turbo vent thing's we would like a big one like i think dean rat pack's.thats the sort but we are open to differences at the moment.
This is how I'm going to have mine done when it goes in for its headlight conversion......

Dan, a bonnet vent ain't gonna stop your car getting hot in traffic, its mainly cosmetic to be honest although underbonnet aerodynamics always will be a mystery subject unless you plan on putting it in a wind tunnel....................

Sorry, but those look bloody horrible!
Why ruin the beautiful lines of the Cerb by cutting a great hole in the front of it!!!
(unless of course you want it to feature in Max Power)
thats all in your opinion,not in the opinion of me and others, Why ruin the beautiful lines of the Cerb by cutting a great hole in the front of it!!!

its exactly like the spider wheels people say they arent the right wheels for a cerb(which there not but you know what i mean,dont you?)
and as for all the different mods on cerby's,they are all done down to personal taste.
.....IMHO though.... There is a thread somewhere (that I can't find at the mo 
) that discusses the reasons for vents not actually doing a cooling job under the bonnet. The gist of it is that it is the stagnant air at the back of the engine under the dash that is fully enclosed that gives rise to the hot air trap. There is no reasonable way of changing that, which is what longbow alluded to when he mentioned the mysteries of underbonnet airflow!
Deano's vent (that was referred to as max power earlier) is reputed to help stability at speedas it releases under-bonnet pressure that would otherwise lighten the front end.

Tell your dad not to do it dc53. Leave the Cerb as God intended
