RE: Ford Side Scoops on 07
I just got mine back from the body shop. They were really easy to install. I did not want to drill holes in my car, so I popped the pins off and just used the 3Mtape. The Body shop charged $100 but the owners are friends of the family.
Here's a picture I took this weekend.

I still don't understand, don't they create pockets of air, thus creating drag? Unless you open up the rear of them.

That is my concern with them is drag, and also them flying off if I go 120+.

the ford scoops have those black plastic covers on them, like on the model below ours--so all the air is just deflected.
