Sure it is. We get air flow in from the back of the hood, and the vent can be cut out for further air flow. Headlights are the next thing to be fixed for sure.

I do, and I will!! Guess I'm gonna be numero uno. I just couldn't pass this up. It's taken a long time but I believe it'll be worth the wait. Livinsvt, thanks. I'll be sure to take plenty of pix.

I haven't decided if I will put w/w squirters in it, probably not. I might look at how my daughter's Cavalier is done. Hers are on the wiper arm. BUT if I do decide to do it, what kind of special, if any, steps do I have to take to make sure I don't screw anything up? And as a bow of humbleness to WOLF24, thanks again for all you've done to make this happen.
You guys crack me up! Thanks for all the support. As far as cutting the hood hear is all you need to know, measure once cut twice . Got it. Seriously, there realy isn't anything special you need to know. But I will see if Jacob can provide some more info for you guys.
hi guys. if you really want to open up the cowl portion, be sure to use a couple layers of masking tape and a ruler to draw a straight line where the cut is going to go. i recommend using a dremel w/ an extension as i'm certain that angle won't be the easiest to reach.
as for rain getting in, just drive REALLY fast and dodge those rain drops! but i have to let you guys know, if you cut it open and water gets in and it ultimately results in some sort of damage, we can't be held liable since the end user decided to modify it. to each his own, but i really like the look of it uncut and the vent in the back is functional enough.
lastly, i can't seem to find the link but i knew of a guy w/ a toyota matrix that stealth mounted his washer nozzles under his hood to spray up through the cabin grille just in front of the windshield. maybe you guys can come up with a similar idea!
