let this be a warning to everyone...if you sport this, don't be surprised if another TM3'er do you a favour and takes a bat to it...either that or label your scoop as the vent to your rice-cooker...:loco

mleblond thinks there's no hole under that scoop...I tend to agree...lol...it's kinda in the wrong spot (too far back) to be effective for our TMIC.

No, no, you have it all wrong. It's a pigeon catcher so you can easily catch diner on the way home.

I hope that isn't anyone from the site. ;) You'll be catching rocks and possibily some wild life as you scream down the hwy... Assuming there is a hole there like you said ;) I'm betting they didn't commit to cutting their hood... ;)

"What is this?"
"It sucks in air..."
"Its definitley sucking"
hahahaha
yeah, dude probably bough the wrong car, it's not a speed he wanted but an STI. When he saw the price of the STI decided to opt for the speed and stick a hood scoop from the STI.....and in this case it's probably slowing him down more than anything :chuckle

It's just as bad as this:

This is not her car, but my sister's boyfriend's mother has a Pontiac Grand Prix with almost the same "hood scoop" on it.
My sister put her hand in it once and it does not lead to anywhere. Just a piece of black plastic... :chuckle
It looks like a ricer spoiler from a Smart car, only backwards!

it's a drag creator.. sometimes the car goes too fast and you need to slow it down a bit.
