    I bought a 94 gtp that has hood vents on it i was just wondering if anybody knew if these are functional or just for looks. They look like they could be functional but i don't wanna tear into it if someone else knows about these

    why the heck do you want to open them or take them out or whatever... they do nothing except let hot air out of the engine bay... they don't even do that very well...
