I spoke to Seibon direct and they do not have vents for the hoods, said you’d have to build them yourself. That sucks!
That is very odd, the hood I had from my 2015 Civic Coupe had them and it came like that direct from Seibon.

That thing looks like the one on my old Talon. Love it.

Pin your hoods guys. The real metal kind, not the aerocatch ones. It's pennies compared to losing a hood or windshield, on top of the safety issues.
I agree to always pin your hoods, but there is nothing wrong with Aerocatch pins. I've got them on my WRX and they are fantastic.

Agreed, I started with Procivic and they said no so I reached out to Seibon direct. Apparently they’re only for cars driven in Arizona these days. Not sure how easy it would be to build covers either.

Have carbon fiber hoods advanced to the point where we don't necessarily need hood pins anymore? I always remember that that was a pretty required addition in case of a broken latch.
Hood pins required trust me,well on our civics,yes

How would rain covers be made for the hood with open vents?I was thinking it be fine like that driving but put waterproof tape while sitting parked so water don't build up

if your hood is shaking while driving you need to adjust it. mine dosn't move at all (ts-style).
