meh,it dosent look bad just not my thing really.

 

[JaySHOguy]

Sorry, don't really care for it.

Just being candid. :sun:

 

[SuperHO]

My random thoughts...and perhaps someone could photochop this....



If it was mine, I'd paint the rest of the hood gloss black, leaving the scoop red...tint the windows and throw some rims on it...then fiberglas or bondo the scoop to the hood, making it look like it was fabricated on. Then I'd cut a gaping hole in the hood so that it's actually functional.

But then, I'm a sick guy...I have this thing for multi-hued paint jobs.

Should have put that $98 toward saving for the cowl.

I have an extra, brand new never used. Has an imperfection in the weave design on the cowl part, would work perfect if you were to paint the hood. If you were local I'd sell it to you. No way I'm up to ship a c/f hood.

How much?

 

[DJSHO91]

It's not my thing, but you seem to have done it well. The wonderful thing about the SHO is that it offers a blank canvas to each of us. I wish you good luck with yours.

 

[naval-avi8or]

Here's mine.

 

[jthod]

no offense, but....EEEEW!!!

 

[naval-avi8or]

no offense, but....EEEEW!!!

None taken.

I personally like hood scoops better than cowl hoods and I also like not having a car that looks like everyone else's. That being said I don't mean take it to the ricer spioler etc.

 

[SuperHO]

How come no one's done a reverse style scoop....say, Terminator Cobra hood?

 

[expy916]

Roof scoop?

 

[MrSho]

Here's mine.

Can anyone photochop this scoop closer to the grill? I think it might look better.

 

[Redline]

Well I think the OP's looks decent. I probably wouldn't like it enough for my car, but I think it looks ok. I don't care for naval-avi8or's as much though. And I have never liked the cowl hoods at all.

 

[SUPERMN]

i been thinking of doin a scoop also, ive been looking on sumitt racing, they have alot of ABS stick on scoops, but the ones i like are the ones that look just like the center part of a cowl hood , making the stock hood look like a cowl for $50, heres a link http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=SUM-471510&N=700+115&autoview=sku thats the smallest one they make, then theres 2 others that are bigger, or these possibly http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=SUM-471107&N=700+115&autoview=sku

 

[Jonny Cash]

I wouldnt do it because its non functional. But it looks pretty decent.

 

[zblackbeast]

yea, no offense to anyone, but im gonna go with everyone else on this one. I dont like the scoop, but the cowl... I want one..

 

[NJSHO]

The first scoop posted doesn't look bad, but does appear out of place. Then again, Im not even a big fan of the cowl hoods.

 

[AREA 91]

IMHO, yuck on both.

 

[SUPERMN]

i just got one 2" cowl scoop, mite end up sending it back if it doesnt look rite but figured id give it a try

 

[biker889]

I dont think the first one looks bad...i mean, i have seen some nasty scoops around here. I like the fact that its done with a SLO Hood. It gives it better flow.

 

[Sho Amo]

i don't think that it looks too bad, but it is just the fact that the rest of the car is so stock that the hood kinda throws me for a loop!!! it would probably make a world of difference if you tinted the windows and maybe dropped it and sported some wheels! just my $.02.....

naval aviator: isnt that the v8?
