The hood must have a under structure, and use factory latches and mounting.
To use this hood you should cut the front (frunk) and make ducting.
The idea is to direct the air that passes through the radiator out and over the car. (letting air backup and not duct correctly will cause severe drag on the car and will be whorse than factory.)
Ok, I'm confused. Is this in reference to the theoretical NSX-R hood, or the Border-style hoods? Of course I can't really tell from the pictures I've seen, but it looks like the vents in the Border hood are well enough forward of the frunk seals that the outdoors would stay outdoors. So . . . Does the Border-style hood require extensive modifications to the frunk? And where does one acquire the radiator relocation kit? Is it necessary immediately to install the hood, or is it just to help vent the radiator?

Too many questions? :P Thanks in advance.
