MMD Hood scoop or no?

[91svtcoupe]

So I wasn't happy with the fitment and quality of the cowl hood and I sold it, and threw my stock hood back....never mind the alignment of it....it was a quick throw on last night....

My question is I have this MMD Hood scoop and im up in the air on it....what do u guys think?

I like it! I been debating a hood scoop myself...

I vote no scoop, I couldn't stand the scoop on my SGT

Why?

Edit: Are hood scoops bolted or taped down?

my scoop was riveted down. that was the main reason I got my cowl hood. most scoops are stick on. I don't think some scoops look bad im just big on taped on parts

If it was funcional, hell yes. It's fake, so I am on the fence.

Heck, my car is a California Special (comes with fake side scoops) and I always debate removing them...

I like the hood scoop. It's tasteful, not tacky IMHO. But I like stuff like that.

Looks good either way but I would keep the scoop.

Decent replies here guys thanks......it has double sided tape and bolts...the only problem is if I put it on correctly I mess up the hood....guess that would mean id have fork out the change for a good cowl next time....lol

I like the scoop. The hoods on these cars are just too big to be smooth IMO.

Whether its bolted on or taped, what difference does it make? At the end of the day it is still a fake hood scoop.

Personally, I don't like fake scoops. That's one thing that always bugged me about Ford .. they love fake scoops.

I would go with a shaker if I wanted a hood scoop. A functional one .. not a stick on

I was simply referring too thw idea I could tape it on to see if I liked it then remove it.....but if I bolt it on its pretty much permanent.....I like the shaker had one on my 06 but cant run a strut bar....and I actually like the subtile stability of it...so I want to keep it...

Been thinking about getting one myself. But I'm on the fence, too. I like the looks, but I keep thinking about all the redneck trucks I see around here with cheap plastic scoops stuck on the hoods. If it were functional in some way, I'd be all over it.

Hey I was thinking if im going to drill holes in it to mount it....why not cut a hole in it and make it functional.....some how?

Once I mounted it correctly per say and not just taped on the hood is pretty much useless at that point. ...thoughts?
