Default Universal WS6 ram air scoop?!?!?!

http://raleigh.craigslist.org/pts/1892102034.html
This blew my mind haha. I had never seen one like this in my many hours of hood searching. I was planning on buying a hood for my 94 firebird, but this would be amazing. I don't have the money now, but if he sells it by the time I do, has anyone seen this anywhere else?

Very popular by the Mexicans here in Houston and you even see it on truck hoods too. Ghetto IMO.

Well a trans am hood scoop would look pretty legit on a firebird....just sayin. Put a trrans am hood on a civic or a truck and obviously it wouldnt fit,so i see your point.

i remember before i bought my oem hood i almost bought a warbird on CL because it was cheap ($400) and had already been painted. I'm actually really glad that when i called the guy it had already been sold since a week later i found my hood on ebay and even though it was unpainted, it cost me almost $100 less than the warbird which the guy said while painted black already probably needed a respray. I wanted an oem from the beginning but i figured i wouldn't get a better deal than the warbird, luckily i was wrong

I know man, I know. I saw a WS6 imitation on a honda here and debated running him off the road. It's okay though, nothing can ruin the look of a true WS6.
