Detailed dimensions will be available soon. ![Wink](https://www.gmforum.com/gm/images/smilies/wink.gif)
I honestly have been pondering this for almost 3 years now, but the damage to my clearcoat this summer gave me the opportunity.
No ducting. At least not yet, but it is possible. You'll see what I mean soon. Primarily heat reduction under the hood for starters.

have you considered the excessive heat in that area and planned on redoing the hoodliner appropriately?

I'm planning on re-covering my hoodliner as the vent openings will come through some of my graphics. Yes, the hoodliner will be cut out as well where necessary.
I've already re-covered this one once, and it'* only about a one-hour process (7 beers).

Do either the larger or smaller vents need to be reshaped or do they "line up" pretty good to the contours of the bonne hood?
