Had a body shop do mine, think the underside came out really well and has a very clean professional look.

Nice and very clean. I like that you managed to avoid cutting the support in the middle of the hood, and that position doesn't look bad either.

Yeah, I measured before install, and it looked like it should fit, so I asked them to specifically install there to avoid cutting the supports and give it more of a factory look from underneath.

I made lights for mine
They really light the engine bay at night for car shows
Theyre in waterproof plastic housings
Taken in my garage with the lights off. There is a fused switch hidden under the hood.

I've been thinking about doing this mod ever since I first came across this thread, but haven't quite been sold on the way the "old" Camaro vent looks on our hood. I'm curious if and how the new style would fit. Looking at them, I don't think they would flow as much air for the guys looking for heat reduction, but for me this would primarily be a cosmetic mod. Any increased airflow is just an added bonus.
GM Part # 23403778 and 23403779
Cheapest I have found so far is $89.19 (each) at http://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oe-gm/23403779
Example from a late model Camaro:
