Default Hood Scoop ?

If i drilled out the holes in the honeycomb hood scoop thing, would it help anything? i was looking at that today when i was cleaning my car. I thought it would be a unique thing to do, dont think it would look bad by any standards.

Gimmi your input!

it would probably cause your hood scoop to fly off at high speeds, and look basicaly the same from any kind of distance.

i wouldnt do it.

I don't think it would do anything. Its not like its functional. Pop your hood and look underneath: even if you did drill holes theres no hole for air to move from scoop into the compartment, the hood is solid. The scoop is just fake, popping out for cosmetics.
