Has anyone made the sport hood functional?

So $215 per-made becomes more attractive to folks who like this MOD.

The cheaper LEDs do not match the headlights well. One of the reasons I want to redo. I also am not putting turns signals in the next set.
The 150.00 cost was purchasing new vents.
If you use your existing ones the MOD is about 75.00 for the less bright LEDs.
Just time consuming to make.

I took the Inserts and used a belt sander on the back to sand off the plastic until it got to breaking through and then I cut the rest out with a razor blade. Looks good, but does not reall do anything except let heat out of the engine compartment.

What about water getting inside the engine compartment?
