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.

I would have to guess something like this

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

There's a pretty big hole behind those ugly side scoops....

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...[:@]
