hey guys..i just got my st205 hood and bumper painted and installed... it felt so good...it was better than sex..ahhaha j/k... my parents saw the hood and bumper and started scolding me and stuff... and brought something to my attention.. "What do you do when it rains?" "won't the water hit the engine?" "aren't you gonna drive around with steams comin out of your engine?!" anyways... uh...what i'm trying to say is..have any of you guys ever come across this?..i mean the grill is like wide open..and water will go into it... help?

on my car, underneath the bonnet is covered with insulation, and there is a plastic sheild that is in between the vent and the insulation but set forward slightly, so what happens is, if any water drips on the insulation and doesnt get absorbed or evaporated straight away, it just runs off onto the plastic sheild, which channels all the water to the front of the hood and it runs out down near the radiator.
not to mention, it keeps the engine clean from dust and dirt and anything else that could fall through an open vent. it still vents heat with the insulation in place, but most of it is vented out of the rear vents. |
