And I am not saying that it is an end-all mod that will give you the best, most noticeable results ever. I do not see why anyone who is even semi-serious about modding their car wouldn't do this, though. If the large majority of your front end lift comes from air in the engine bay exiting under the vehicle, then why wouldn't you go to Home Depot and make a belly pan? The hot turbulent air under your car also contributes to a large portion of the vehicle's drag.In my opinion, buying the relatively cheap materials and putting in the time to build the belly pan and the radiator ducts is a small price to pay for a modification that has no bad side effects.Granted, I already really like the heat extraction style hood. So I wasn't considering the cost of a new hood when I said this is a cheap mod. You can add the GT500 hood vent to a factory hood for cheap, though.All in all, everything I have posted on this subject is just stuff I have read. I was asking if anyone has done this to their SN95, to confirm or disprove what I have been reading. It's really just a discussion of theory until someone with real experience with radiator ducts and heat extraction hood vents and belly pans can chime in with their results.</blockquote>
