I am thinking of going with a Hood scoop for few reason but the main one is that they look more custom that buying a CF hood at least thats how I feel. I am leaning towards EVO WRC Style what do you guys think???Link for scoop
Check it out and tell me what you think.

well... u know what my favorite erebuni hoodscoop is...

but i think it would be cool to see a celi with the EVO scoop on it. it'd be something different, and would work especially well if you're going for a more agressive look. if done right i think it'd look pimp as hell. and then there is always the option of doing a really really custom thing that i was going to do but decided not to do. heres the jist of this idea. you get a CF hood. you get the hoodscoop of your choice. you get the hoodscoop molded onto the CF hood. you get the hood painted around the hoodscoop and back behind it, giving you a sweet ass custom look and a nice CF look as well. if you dont understand i could draw it out, but its a pricey endeavor. its like $400-500 for a CF hood, those hoodscoops are around $150 and then who knows how much it would cost for the customization work, probably more than usual because they would have to protect the CF hood and be very careful not to get any fiberglass or anything past where its being painted or the whole thing would be ruined and you would just have to paint the whole hood, which would still come out looking sweet as hell, but if you're just going for looks it wont be what was wanted, but the dropped weight and cooling will help performance either way. its risky but would look sweet if it was pulled off. you would probably be really lucky to get that for less than $800 including the materials and the labor. prolly a better idea to just get a hoodscoop, but if u want something that will never be replicated the CF thing would be the way to go.
