Default Focus RS vented bonnet

Has anyone played around with grafting vents into their bonnet? Focus RS or non RS !?

Log onto the RS Owners Club forum & view the Focus RS section - this is a common mod with quite a few cars on there running RS vents of different types such as saph cos, fiesta rs, etc

There are loads of threads on the subject found with a quick search

The bottom picture, I have the vents ready and waiting to go on a bonnet. When I get around to it!! The guy I bought them off bought an ex Colin Mcrae bonnet and made moulds out of the vents, I still have his no if anyone is interested.

They are awsome all round, but I think the Fiesta RS Turbo vents looks the best because they're a little more discreet

I did my bonnet about three years ago. Couldn't find any vents I liked at the time so I just cut some in. Scary cutting big holes in pristine panels, but worked out ok.
