I've been looking at a few different options for hood scoops for my car that I could easily have ready for the 20th show.

I figured I could go with sunbird, or TA vents and that would be a piece of cake, but something that I found that might be cool was on E-Bay:



Personally, I hate the way it looks on that car, but if I got two of them and put them symetrically between the headlights, and then reversed the direction they faced...

How do you think it'd look?

Can anyone photoshop a pair of these on a Fiero's hood backwards?

Are you gonna mount them scoop forward or scoop backwards? Looks like it's mounted both ways on the pics you posted.

Personally, I'm not fond of that scoop much at all. I don't think it matches the car. What do you have, though? Notchback or fastback?

What are you saying smooth??
You want to sell me your hood before it get shipped up north? I think that we could do that... Mach10 won't mind THAT much

But, the open end of the scoop would face the windshield. It'd be pretty silly to be pusing air into them...

I really don't care what car it goes on, as long as it's a Fiero.

I don't know which angle the picture should be for this to work well... sorry...

that would probably look pretty good as long as it was reversed and functional?

If you find my signature offensive, simply dont look at it or call 1-800-WAA-AAAH.

I don't think it will look good at all. The scoop is just too tall, and doesn't have the right shape for a Fiero. It'll be two big humps sticking out of the hood.
