Hood Louvers / vents

got these from a Ford T-bird turbo coupe ($10 and the pick-a-part) and turned them backwards (they face forward on the ford) - glued them on 5 years ago with black RTV and they will not come off

I can tell they definately vent the radiator heat well, always the first spot to melt snow and I can feel the air being pushed out them when the elec fan kicks on - they also follow the stock hood lines rather well - in a downpour the water dumps on top of the fuse box cover and the driver side inner fender (never had a problem yet)

You can also ebay -> NACA <- for a whole bunch of cheap ducts, while those are meant for taking air in, you can always turn them around to vent air out
