Hello..

Actually i bought vorsteiner hood(VRS Vented Race Hood) about 2 weeks ago.

I am worried about rain getting into the engine bay. Can you tell me if there is any problem in regards to the rain getting in and if it damages the electronics in the car .

any problem in the engine bay something like electronics terrible thing ?

Everything is pretty much sealed. When you drive in the rain, water gets in the engine bay. You just don't want to submerge your car in water.

you cant avoid water from entering the engine bay but what i normally do was cover it with a tape.. I only do this on a heavy rain though other that i just leave it open... and so far so good... nothing bad has happened to my car...
