    Think I'd have fitted it the other way around so the curve matched the btack edge of the bonnet, nice job though.

    It seems to be an optical illusion as the back of the vent is actually straight.

    It may look better that way BUT then the vents would be forcing air in as opposed to pulling the hot air out. It would have less effect as a vent
