[urq] Hood vents & inserts?

[Ingo Rautenberg]

I don't have a problem with hood vents in these cars.  Especially since
we're talking functional rather than just 'dress up.'  I'd look at two
areas:
1.  Above the turbo and
2.  Behind the radiator

These areas could definitely benefit from additional cooling/ heat
discharge.

Besides, Our hoods are probably one of the best deals (in terms of
replacement parts) available.  In fact, when I do mine, I may have an
additional plain hood painted at the same time....
