Isn't that the same thing? Being completely open and getting water on the engine? Accomplishes the same thing, water in the engine bay. Maybe you meant properly vented.

Is it ok? Um... it's not preferred and can't do any good.

Sorry i never checked back on this:

Trix sells the hood I have. They are great guys. I believe their EVO style hood comes with the grill.

As for the vents they are covered, except the one over the intake. THe center ones have a plastic cover that can be removed if you wish to allow cooling of your engine.
