Especially if your hood is one of the ones with the crease in it like mine.

I have louvers on my 100 6 which has a 3000 engine.   I don't notice any hot

air coming over the windshield.  I also don't notice the car running any
cooler than my BJ8.   My feet still get hot and the leak through the drivers

door is the main source of heat.   If you have a coolant leak, you will
notice it right away with the louvers, it will spray the windshield.

Other reasons  not to have it done:
1.  The hood is harder to wax
2.  I think it does not look as good as a bare hood.
