Side Scoops - Yes or No

Side Scoops - Yes or No
My wife was with me as I began my search for a 2010 Mustang GT. She saw one that had the side scoops. The one I bought does not. She really liked the scoops and thinks I should get them. I'm not sold on them yet. So the question is, should I get them or not - what do you guys think?

I put side scoops from wheelskin on my '07. They look pretty good but up close it's quite evident they're slapped on. I'm not sure if ANY of the aftermarket scoops look very natural up close and personal. But I don't regret adding them. They give my Stang a bit more attitude.
The pics are the only ones I can find at the moment.

I'm thinking aerodynamics, you will probably lose a few points in drag co-efficiency with a scoop. Its just there for the look... i have to say a hearty no for me!

None taken. If I had to do it over again I'd research it a little better and find ones that look better closeup. But all-in-all, they look mean from about 8 feet away or more and, as mentioned earlier, they DO provide some attitude.

I'm a fan of the side scoops, I mean hell I ordered them. Working at the ford dealership I have been able to look at two identical 2010 mustangs side by side, one with side scoops, one without. And what everyone else is posting is right, it does add an aggressive look. I say go for it!
