Here's my car with a completely unmolested hood. The paint job, however, is only slightly better than the one on the nose, which experienced the heartbreak of psoriasis after a really shoddy crash repair by the previous owner.

Finally have it figured out. Some gasket foam added to help direct air through the radiator.

Turns out that it's actually a blind hole and doesn't require plugging

The 1/8" NPT plug goes in the other side, or so we thought

The drain plug is pre-installed by the manufacturer

Radiator, with fan shrouds cut to fit (sorta) and ready to install

Finished view from the front. The ducts are loose. Perhaps I'll silicone them in place if I get around to it, but perhaps not.

Perhaps even a little tighter clearance on this side, but still workable (I hope)

I should probably put some kind of sheath over the brake line to prevent rub-through

Due to differences in intercooler hose length, I had to bridge the longer gap by attaching to the anti-roll bar

In order to test clearance at full lock, I had to raise the wheel, as it tests differently at full droop

...but viable, I think. Probably not going to be using full lock on track.

And then the upper A-arm. I've elected to aim the duct at the caliper, per Emilio's suggestion, rather than use Singular brake ducts. The theory is that it's better to cool the caliper than the rotor, as that's where the fluid is.

Hose is attached to FM intercooler tubing, using vacuum hose over the zipties in order to prevent the duct hose from wear (thanks to a suggestion in another thread, from BBundy, IIRC).

Rear ride height hasn't changed as much, if at all.

Front ride height is much more reasonable now

Driver-side wheel looks like it has less camber than opposite side. Since the alignment says otherwise, I put it down to fender variation post-crash repair.

Extreme negative camber. Note how much the offset bushing pulls in the top of the wheel (15x9 6UL).

All done and (mostly) ready for my track day the next day

A quick zip tie fix (after adjusting the lip in as much as we could) and we're back in business. I don't think it will make contact under normal use (i.e. not at full droop).

The passenger side was close, but no interference
