RE: Hood scoop opinons - Post your thoughts!
I went with the Xenon scoop as well. It's too easy to install and it fits between the window washers. I don't know where everyone else's Xenon scoops came from but I got mine along with the Xenon window scoops and quarter scoops from a company here in Atlanta. All of their stuff is on ebay(where I got my stuff). The ebay id is rdjenterprises. Talk about perfect paint! That was my biggest concern but boy was I happy. I'm thinking about the 3-piece spoiler next. Any comments on the Xenon spoiler??

Here is two pics of the CDC scoop that was made functional in conjunction with a Pro-Charger installed. The driver side CDC engine shroud was modified to allow air to channel right into the ProCharger air inlet filter. We also thought it would blend better if the scoop was painted the color of the car, so we sanded down the rough finish and painted the recesses. We left the ridges as polished aluminum.

I like the Eleanor hood, which isn't a scoop at all. Not a fan of the nonfunctional scoops, but to each their own. I like the simple, plain look of the hood as is, and plan to leave it that way possibly until I charge the engine. But I plan to keep mine as more of a sleeper, and scoops don't help there.

I personally went with Cervinis' Ram Air hood. It's not exactly functional; i.e. there isn't anything that runs fromthe openings of the scoops into the air filters - but the scoops are open nonetheless. I like it the most because this hood has the largest and most promenent scoops out of any hood on the aftermarket. I just got it last week and boy oh boy does it look mean.
