RE: Remove hood scoop?
Hey has anyone dared to take off our "bad ***" non functional side scoops? Does it look smooth or are they there for a reason haha

I did, but that was cause I replace them with the Cervini's side scoops.

remove the plastic part on the side air scoops and install some duct work down towards the lower brakes.

First you'd need to cut a hole so the duct work would be functional.

I'm could swear all there was were holes for the clips that hold the scoops on.

Nope. There's a big hole in the middle with a fiber paper glued over it. I just had a scoop off this last week looking to see what could be done. One body shop quoted $4k to smooth out the holes. I don't think he really wanted to touch it...[:@]
