which bit you on about? If you're on about the bit on the right, I did that so it went with the normal bulge on the bonnet.

Not to my taste (prefer the standard F50 vent if anything), but respect to you for doing something different, would be good to see a few more pics tho, and when its on the car :)

I'm swayable on it....i like it cos i like things to be a bit OTT......but i also like a bit of subtlety, smooth lines etc....What about meshing the full hole but then using some clear perspex on the bottom half behind the mesh? the main prob would be the weater running down the bonnet into the holes, if the lower half is blocked, then your alrite?

mesh it, then perspex under it. as long as u seal it right it wont leak.

but lose that line arond the edge

i purposely(spelling)did the vent with the lines cos i wanted a bulge in the bonnet aswell plus i dont like the F50's the way they are supposed to be on imo.

i am keeping the vent at the top active cos my K&N is right underneath it.

i might keep the others active but i dont know yet, good idea though about meshing it then putting perspex underneath that, ill think about it!
