yes i've seen them
but never knew where they are put on.. or how it would look like i mean.
it looks good
for me.. i think if i buy a bonnet vent.. it'll just be one, and it'll be on top of the left headlight so air passes into the air pod underneath

i like the front bar heaps
i'm so bored of my standard CD front bar
if at least it had the cdx foggies it would look good

The vents look funny sticking out on the side

The bonnet vents in my opinion look awful and serve no purpose from what it appears.

The side front bar vents however do look good.

I am of the belief, if there is a hole in your bonnet you better have a supercharger, turbocharger or a air intake system that will benefit from the gapping hole.

Degen-Astra, like I said, they could just be stuck on without any actual holes in the bonnet. But regarding the way it is stuck on even IF it had actual vents wouldn't serve much purpose. It'd be more effective if the vent's mouth tilted towards the front more

The front bumper is the UK SRi-T bumper made by prodrive I think

:P well i dunno i was thinking of vents, i'm sure its all passed through our minds at one time, i just dont think think its with the hassle of actually putting a hole in your bonnet if your only doing it for looks, those dont look to bad but i dunno they just dont appeal to me :) i guess its like the old saying goes, "to each man his own"
