i was gonna say, wheres the pic of the bucket seats, lol, cause thats no bucket seat! lol
Paul, those are F50 vents yeah? the name is a clue as to the fact they let air out not in. you have closed up a major air intake for cooling, and also the air that feeds most of your engines intake. Ideally you would fit some sort of air feed on the bonnet to feed your engine. otherwise you may drop a few BHP.
I actually dont personally think overheating will be a problem for you though, as there will be plenty gets in through the rad, and even though it will be quite warm, it'll be pushing its way out the those vents. More important is that you fit a cold air feed to your intake/induction kit, or whatever it is you have. because the only air getting to that wil be warm, meaning a drop in bhp

you realise that theres a big ass radiator full of coolant at scalding hot temps of around 90 degrees? the air going into your bay will be pretty warm. seriously, why do you think BMC carbon dynamics airboxes give extra BHP? they protect the intake from engine bay heat, and feed air in directly from the front bumper.
Its only advice though, you dont have to take it.
Its probably better that you lose a little power and drive more slowly anyway. less likely to spank it into something/one and waste all that hard earned modding money

yup! on the body kit ( i dont have a pic at hand to post) but there are 2 small vents aththe sides of the big one and i have it behind the ones on the sides so it avoids the radiator.

Paul. wtf are you talking about?
look at a pic of a Barchetta. they sit FLUSH with the bodywork. It's not like swapping for alfa 147 handles. They'd need a lot of work. clearly you aren't afraid of that from the pics above, but theres nothign to compare, lol

I think you'd be better off looking for a barchetta and taking a measuring tape, a picture won't give you any detail...unless it had a ruler in frame
