Looking good Ben,
But - and i hate to say this now you have put it together - that vent will work much better at speed if it sits in the front third of the bonnet. This area is a low pressure zone due to the air rolling over the front edge and helps suck the air through. Where the vent is now is neutral to higher pressure due to the screen sticking up into the airstream. In that position you rely on the stagnation pressure developed in front of the radiator to force the air out the bonnet, and it will more likely head out under the car where you have a nice low pressure zone due to the wickedly low front splitter and side skirts.
Fix it when you go to make the final vented bonnet.
