ive wanted a scoop for a while but wrx/sti scoops look goofy on these older leggys, so i went a custom route.....

Looks damn good. Is that a 2nd gen scoop?

yep that is cool! Very nice work ! I do like the scoops that are more built in to the hood and less on top of the hood. But on my car i went for the wrx scoop to help the wrx top mount Image

No build pics? I'm interested to see how you did it and what did it cost?

Yeah seriously. It's your responsibility as a member here to contribute to the board :) you can't just come on here and drop 3 camera phone pics showing off your work lol. We need to see some work in action shots!

lol especially since you're probably the only one with this specific hood scoop. I'd love to do mine that way I just don't know how you bond it together.

Was the scoop built into the hood and made out of metal? Just cut it out and weld it into your hood?

i WISH i could have welded the 2 together, but the 05 LGT hood was Aluminum....
