I've been trying to figure out how to make vents that don't look **** for ages. I don't want them for looks, i actually need big vents. Walky scoop would do the job but they look crap on a LE kitted calais... I had a thought of getting the bonnet laser cut, any1 seen that done?

if i was to get one id get it laser cut, then paint the mesh the same colour as the car.

keep in mind positioning.. u dont wanna put one over somewhere important because u might be out one day and it could rain and the water could do damage, or even dust or leafs e.t.c

cosworths look sick on vl's, especially with aero kits. i have got a set in the shed waiting for when i get a new paint job and that...apart from looks they help keep temps down in your engine bay...

i reckon louvres look best. you cut thin lines in the bonnet and turn them up with plyers. pretty easy to do if your repainting the bonnet
