Apparantly some have said the have had problems with a bare hood. I think it is pretty rare though. You could always get some sort of insulation for the area of the hood directly above.

I have never really paid attention to the underside of my hood. Do some of our cars not have the hood liner? I'm still in work but I'll look when I get home this morning. Thanks for the advice though
