Those are nice but I dont have the money to spend on a new hood. I would rather just attach a functional scoop.Blanco_Diablo wrote:Not a scoop but RK sport has a few hoods, a bit pricier though:

That's what I had planned on doing. Cutting and attaching. I was trying to see if anyone knew of any good scoops.MrManager wrote:The only way to make an attached scoop functional is if you cut a hole in the hood. That said you can buy one and have it cut then welded, and have the hood repainted.
By the time you get a scoop, have a hole cut in a hood, have the scoop attached to the hood and have the hood re-painted, you're probably going to spend significantly more than you would just buying an aftermarket hood. Just something to think about...TraumaForYou wrote:Those are nice but I dont have the money to spend on a new hood. I would rather just attach a functional scoop.
So you believe that even though I have all the necessary tools to have the job done that I would be spending more in the end? Very very unlikely. A hood that is give or take a good couple hundred dollars is going to cost significantly more than the job I'm trying to do. I appreciate your concern though!vibenvy wrote:By the time you get a scoop, have a hole cut in a hood, have the scoop attached to the hood and have the hood re-painted, you're probably going to spend significantly more than you would just buying an aftermarket hood.

Naw !!! The labor of love is what you're in for. Plus you may have to fabricate a scoop to your liking and THEN attach it to the hood. Lots of hours in the shop but very little money involved. Go for it and keep us posted here!TraumaForYou wrote: So you believe that even though I have all the necessary tools to have the job done that I would be spending more in the end? Very very unlikely.
