No offence but I reckon it would look pretty gay. What type of scoops are they? I want to get Cosworth bonnet vents on mine. I think they look pretty good.

Wicked your getting a scoop!!! They don't really look gay, but it depends on the place you put it, or where your turbo gear is. High performance cars have scoops. Drag cars have scoops and now your car will. I've seen drag cars with the flip up lights like the mx-5, take out one of the lights and mount a vent inside the flip up housing. Would work but not if your driving on the road.

yup id say go look at one off a turbo diesel jackaroo. The 2000-> models are pretty wide and from memory the jackaroo only uses the left part of it.
