Default nice vented hoods?

im lookin for a vented hood for my 96 civic hatch. i looked at seibon, importfan and some other random sites. and i dont like the types i see. i really dont like that invader style hood. i dont want an evo style hood either cause i dont want my car to have an identity crisis

anyone know where i can get a nice vented hood?

i'd rather have a vented hood.

i dont care about looking clean to anyone else. i just want the car to look how i want it to look.

i like the cwest hood with a vent. but im not spending that much money on a fiberglass hood from japan.

but something along those lines where the hood isnt flared all crazy for the vent.

No venting looks good unless you slapped an intercooler there STI style.

why is the front mount on the front of the car? Duh. I dunno. AIRFLOW?

I dont like the design personaly with all the heat from the engine but more power to Subaru for making it so. I think it looks good.

actually...as much as u wanna whine about it, the turbo is right there and it lets out alot of heat from it thru the vent. you can see it when it is cold out.

so your view on it as pointless is wrong...it does serve some purpose.

I'm not doubting its effectiveness for turbo. I was going for a vent if I had a turbo, or at least put the hood on washers, the topic is more appearance than function.

Thats why I bitch about non functional vents...
