I'm all for "it's mine, i'll do what I want" but with stuff like this, 99.9% of people are going to think it's ugly and rediculous. You can't just post something like this and expect it to go over well. It's ugly, it doesn't flow with the car, it has no benefit, etc etc.
I, and i'm sure others will agree that clean cars without 500 stickers, fake hoodscoops, autozone stick on vents, and other retarded accessories look wayy better and will get more looks than a gawdy riced out piece of ****.

after seeing that 4th gen i suddenly feel the urge to beat my wife and purchase a home that often gets in the way of tornados.
im sure the OP liked the idea of the scoop but after seeing how out of place it looks on the 4th gen, will reconsider it.

i definitely didnt talk **** about OVA1's car and that has an ugly wing and hood scoop, but he knows it doesnt look good. its to make people who judge the car think twice when he crosses the finish line.
call it rice or hill billy engineering it looks terrible how that hood scoop was mounted. but as far as me talking down because of the car i drive is incorrect.

i would say the worst part about it is the angle an fbody hood makes. maybe if it was more perpendicular to the ground and the engine was a bit further forward... but even with those factors it may look out of place.

LMAO! I can't believe the hilarious **** I got on this thread. I don't give a damn if people were giving their opinions or not. Most of it was hilarious and the Camaro with the cardboard box hood scoop and body kit was PRICELESS!
Yeah I have thick skin. It just seemed to me the op was asking a legitimate question. Do I like it or would I do something like that to my car....... HELL NO! Yes I know there was going to be a lot of flack. I was just hoping someone would actually have a answer for op.
Don't get me wrong, I am with all of you on the scoop, but it would look better if the hood/body lines were not the way they are.
