V-Mounts Without Vented Bonnets?
who of you's have them and how well do they work? i live in australia where a vented bonnet is no where near as easy to come by as what they seem to be in the states. or as cheap. ie around $1000 for a hideous one. or get one from RHDJapan.com for $2k-$3k. preferably looking for temps taken in areas where it gets between 30-40 degrees C during the day. pics of your setups would be wicked also.

Here is a good thread on the topic of V-Mounts
https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-gen-general-discussion-322/v-mount-setup-pics-623892/
There are a few other threads if you want to continue researching.
Summary - Vmount works great. Proven in testing. Vented hood probably helps but no one has done before/after testing so who knows if it helps enough to be worth the expense.

only the cheap ones are, and by that i mean they just dont suit the car at all, they look like theyve taken the design off a nissan its all square. and the other one has such small vents.

That is why I said stock style. I am going to get a fiberglass stock style hood and vent it how I want it vented. Fiberglassing is relatively easy.
But I agree with you... making anything custom look right is never easy, especially when it comes to aero/body work.
