If your going to buy a carbon fiber hood, becareful what you buy, some carbon fiber hoods don't fit as good as they claim. If you can have the hood test fitted on your car before you buy it would be a plus. As far as water issues, some hoods have drain holes to channel the water away and others don't. I wouldn't worry too much about water getting into the engine bay unless its near anything electronic. During the winter season, I would put the stock hood on.

Here are some sites that I know of that sell carbon fiber spoilers:

* extremedimensions.com
* andysautosport.com
* visracing.com
* carbon-fiber-hoods.com
* kgsengineering.com
* seiboncarbon.com

I've never had trouble with the vents on my hood. Generally the hoods with more aggressive vents come with a rain guard too so you can decide whether you want to make the vents functional. ViS and Seibon both fit great so I'd stick to those brands. Quick google search also pulled up these:
