RE: What do you all think of this scoop?
I got my scoop off of a funny car. it was only $60. then I got a hood from a junkyard for $50 and I screwed it onto the hood and used bondo to smooth it out. then I cut a huge hole in the hood and stuck a cone filter up in there. I think it helps out. it will be better once I put a V8 under it

I have seen some fiberglass scoops on ebay, but I cant see 150+ for a fiberglass scoop. I would rather spen the extra 60 and get the sheet metal one for the hemi sport. Maybe I will just have to bite the bullet and call the dealer for the part numberto the R/T hood. they look awsome, but are still not functional.

Umm yeah that looks like crap....sorry guys
It's just a cheap universal stick on scoop.....that's what the high school kids throw on their Escorts & V-6 Mustangs
There's better looking ones out there (like the R/T scoop--it's not the best but looks 10 times better!)

Someone said it was kind of pricey before, but it looks alright (for a fake add on scoop anyways)
HOLY ****!!! Just looked up the price for that scoop on www.dodgeparts.com and they want $526.80 for it already painted or $425 primered

Did I read that right? 530 for a sheetmetal scoop that is for all intents and purposes asthetic? I like the scoops from the charger and himisport better... I will dig around at the junk yard for a wreck or somthing I guess...

No, I don't think you read that right.
IIRC, the hood scoops are fiberglass. So 500+ for a mass produced PAINTED fiberglass piece is insane.

Yeah that should be like a $100 part....what the heck?
