August 23, 2011 - Here's the location of the vents viewed from underneath.
You can see how they're tucked into the bracing. I also used the rivets to firmly attach the bracing to the bottom of the hood, to retain as much strength as possible. One of the cross bars had to be cut, but it's riveted to the hood on each side (one of those rivets hasn't been installed yet, but you can see the hole) and the louvers actually add strength in this direction.
