Quote from: jetpilot;794238However, felt very uncomfortable when i was away from home and it started raining and just knew it was all going over the engine, electrics etcquoteI do have the top flappy part of an old tent (the bit that covers the top vent), i use that to cover the engine if out and its raining

All good buddy, im sure there are solutions, just saying why i went off the large vented style!

this is a great topic, I sarted thus because I was stuck in m25 otherday about 25-30minutes almost standstill, I can see the heat escaping from the sides and I was thinking there must be benefits with vented bonnets specially rotary engines are does not like any exceesive heat.
I do like the look of feed as bonnet vents  further back

I think they all look good actually, except the dodgy old louvre Re ones, no offence to anyone who owns one! All depends what look you are after, Aggressive - Scoot, Stylish - Re and Mazdaspeed, Subtle - Feed/Shine.

Would like to see some more pics added, maybe get a few up, discuss pros, cons and findings and make it a bonnet sticky for future ref?
