2016 SS HOOD VENTS
I've heard that the 2016 hood vents will discolor if wax get's on them.
Also does anyone know weather or not the hood vents leak in the rain? |

The vents are clearcoated, clean them up.with diluted alcohol and use a clear sealant like ssport16 uses above.

Also yes, they do "leak" in the rain, there is nothing bellow them, so water will get in to the engine bay

The manual states not to get anything like wax on them but on my car they are clear coated. If they were a matte finish that would be different. I put Sonax PNS on mine and they look fine.
