Looks good. Did it come out fairly clean on the underside? I wish the OE JDM hoods came with vents this size. They fit the car really well, IMO.

Thanks mark. It's not bad under side I fabed a bracket a little larger than
The vent, cut out the center and drilled holes to match the bolts. I'll take a pic of it tomorrow.

Doing this soon with Evo X vents I have here sitting around. Under hood shots will help a lot /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

I'd like to see the underside. Is there deflectors that keep rain from running all over the engine? Looks great. I like the larger size versus the JDM VR4's.

My original post stated they were evo purple..i figured smart people who love mitsubishi would know where they were from..sorry I wasn't clear.. I'm surprised with how many people on Facebook and here can't identify the vents and keep asking where I got them. Anyway her is the underside..

Not pretty but it works..

did you get the block off plates as well? you know for when it rains so no water goes in the engine bay.

LOL smart people don't take pics from 10+ feet away then upload into a site that shrinks it down.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Look great, even the underside came out pretty good.

I wondered about that but didn't want to sound stupid. What do the plates look like to prevent that?

I like these way more than the GVR4 jdms. Looks really nice. The lines flow well with the hood too. If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for said vents?
