Default do you guys like the bolt on hood scoops?

I debating on whether or not get do this mod, seems like a cheaper mod to do, 329$ then labor.

I will probably never buy a functional hood scoop, not sure the performance gains are worth replacing my existing CAI and the whole hood - thoughts?


I do like the look of the hood scoop, but i teeter back and forth? What do you guys think?



Anyone else go with the bolt on hoodscoop

No way man... If you want + need a scoop get the real deal... The stick on scoops look... well "STUCK ON" they look fake from a distance and look worse up close. The first time I saw that scoop on the truck I could not beleive Dodge put a stick on FAKE scoop on a vehicle...

The SUPERBEES look cool and I think they should be the only ones with the scoop.... because they get a production number to go with it... Other than that... no way man, not cool at all In my personal opinion... but hey there are those who will argue that it looks cool...

SPEED SAFE, AIR RAM

No

The bolt on/stick on hood scoops always look horrible...at a distance and up close...doesn't matter what vehicle you put them on. [:'(]

I think they look great. I also think the =AIR=RAM=> with the =JET=STREAM=> would draw more cold air that a functional hood. I dont have one, but I have a similar product. Its not like youre bolting on a cheezy aftermarket scoop...I like the OEM scoop.

Nothing good is cheap or free. There is no such thing as the easy way out of anything worthwhile. Nothing good is stick on.

No, spend the extra and go to a reputable paint shop, you won't regret it...
