    Those hood scoops are all over trucks & other cheap pos vehicles here in Wichita, KS. They are; tacky as hell, Will nvr look good on ANYTHING, & they scream, "I'm too ****ing cheap to buy a nice hood!"

    They're kind of like Asian beetles. At first, there were only a couple here and there and now they're everywhere you look and there's one or two stuck on just about every other vehicle a person sees.

    My gp came with them on and they were not horrible but i still ripped them off which was a b@t$%. Not worth the hassel or the scratches you will get after realizing there ugly and u dont want them anymore.

    Since I saved like 600ish dollars to have scoops over a different hood I'm ok with them, maybe one day when I have more money and horsepower then I'd go with a different hood but its not much of a priority now since these look pretty good to me.

    I actually kind of like that, though the scoops look too far back, and the stripes would be sexier without stick on scoops.

    Not digging the older GP as much.

    Thanks. They look better now that the trunk is debadged. Though I plan on getting a white prix and tinting those tails then putting them on that. That is what I want to do at least....

    Where'd you get that body kit? And how much? It's a little different then the stock ones..


    That white GP looks straight, not to bad, at least you didn't just stick it on there.

    I think that all he did for the bumper is fill in all the accents and plate cover with some sort of epoxy which some others have done. The hood has WS6 scoops molded on IIRC.

    I love the bumper and he did nice work on the hood.

    thanks man. I glued the filler plate in then i used body filler to fill in the accent grooves and around the license plate box. it was pretty simple, just had to sand everything smooth so it all flowed

    I thought that body filler should only be laid on very thinly, if not then it will crack over time. Are the accents and plate to deep?

    I've been thinking of doing this just like yours.
