Thanks Chunky.

Vents are from a Focus RS.
As to water entering the bay, it will do but my car is under cover most of the time, so no real issue. Could ask the same question of any car with vents though...?

Someone was looking at venting an rs6 but the concern was water.

Audi S3, S4 V8 avant.
Porsche Macan Turbo.
Gone but NEVER forgotten - C5 RS6 Misano red avant.

Now - Empty garage

If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there!

Yeah, I still like the idea, a lot. Water ingress can be avoided but you've gotta add drainage to an area with less thickness than a mozzie's cock. Tough to do and it most blocks heat escape... which brings us full circle.
No matter where you go, there you are.

I see Jules and his mate were collecting trophies in those photos. Who won what?

Most vents have A water catch under neath them.
