Rust the header cover? You know how long water would have to sit there.....

now that this topic has been brought up and we have been having stupid rain in cali again. I have this hood but get worried stuff might get wet that might not suppose too. Do they make rain guards for this hood?

I think i need to get a bypass valve for my injen CAI too, im too worried about that getting messed up too with puddles everywhere.
