Probably get into the sparkplug holes and rust and corrode the cap, get into your podfilter, rust all the connections in your fusebox, fade the mivec cover, buildup water around the injectors and what not.

Obviously not much thought was put into this bonnet... It should have a rain catch under the vents that can be removed when its nice weather to allow for maximum air flow!

Like mine does :D

Evo's and colts have a shield that goes in between the vent and the engine gap, it shifts the water to a vacant hold in the bay to pass by the engine.

You could fab something to do this...
Or spend $30 as Aza said :lol:
