RE: hood vents
Do you mean the ones in the front? Just for looks. You can cut them out and add the grill metal to the underside. Makes them look functional.

RE: hood vents
They look brake cooling vents. The mesh itself looks like the same stuff they use for mudracing. Basically the mesh has either holes or squares cut out. It allows air through, but keeps out mud. IE the smaller holes.

RE: hood vents
It's not a handle... It's the hinge. (am I wrong, Paul?")

RE: hood vents
If you look at it carefully, you can see there are openings.
