Those cuts across the support members look like they will take away a lot of the strength of the hood.
It might actually bend the hood if someone slammed it shut too hard.

That looks like a screen mesh inside the vent. If it is, surface turbulence on the mesh might restrict air flow. I would try it first, without the screen.

Those are observations of a novice. Likely to be wrong.
