On the current Porsche 911 water-cooled car there is a tiny air exit slot at the leading edge of the hood just behind the bumper for the center radiator.

On higher powered models the two flanking radiators vent into the wheel wells.

Point being the size for exiting air is much smaller than air intakes. Meaning it may be of higher velocity, but lower pressure.
