Re: Vorsteiner hood... My saga continues....
thanks,
good question... i customed rain ducts to let the water thru the side of the fenders....
this will help protect my wiring from the headlamp + the open pod CAI
will take some pics to share....
heard tony5050 has some "waterfall" issues too.....

during rain/downpours, where do the rain water end up? Do some it it end up through the vents into the engine compartment?
(great looking hood, Eddie!)

In my case, I fabricated shields to protect me xenon ballasts...

Oh Yes, Thanks to angie for such a great job. I am extremely happy! Best Deal in town!
I highly recommend her to the bros. But Note: She is ALWAYS ALWAYS fully booked. So please make advance reservation.
btw: the wing is on..members can have a sneak view at the usual location..
Also, can someone teach me how to post a picture up like that of Wilson's photos? I tried posting some on the meetups on my own thread...but it's not too clear. Wilson's one is clear as hell! Any idea? I already did the IMG copy and paste...

(1) The water will fall straight in, if the car is stationary. Remember, one side of the engine bay is your stock or after-market filter. If stock no issue. Box. If CAI, there is a shield, unless you are running on open pod. The other side (driver side) is more of a concern, where the ballast housing is located. However, so far the rain water has not hit that pecular angle.
(2) Bulk of the rainwater will skip off the bonnet when the car is in motion.
(3) However, the rainwater will sneak in between the top and second layer of bonnet. Try lifting the bonnet after the rain and you will see what I mean. Rainwater will gush from "within" the bonnet. No solution yet - an inherent design issue. Unless the fitter putty the gap (beneath the grilles).
(4) Rain trays are available from Vorsteiner. But it is not to be installed underneath. It is a CF tray meant to be lay over the grilles. And you will have to clip it from beneath to secure it.
No problem so far. A couple of things to note:emiffy said:
