no, you don't want to get water on any of the electrical stuff while the car is running.

If you just want it for looks then why does it have to be functional? If your trying to keep it from being "rice" then that is just stupid because to me, having a functional air scoop that does nothing to improve performace is "rice" too.

Honda's don't need hoodscoops, period.

I am however looking for a low cowl to help vent the heat for the track/summer.

oooh aight.

Does it matter if water gets in the intercooler anyway though? It seems like if it did, itd be just about impsoeible to drive with a FMIC in the rain.
