I was talking to this guy who works at a body shop earlier and he was just suggesting that i go with a applicable hood scoop...if anyone has any advice on hood scoops id love to hear it... I know it will look funny until i get the body kit mounted, but i think it might look decent? If the hood scoop idea is outa the question im thinkin a simple carbon fiber hood will do, i have a dark blue paint job so i think it'd look decent.

Go for VIS CF Zyclone - IMO it is the only good choice when switching from OEM.

My scoop is molded in, and I think it looks good and original.. just like the guy with the WRX scoop (i think its DG?)
If youre interested, I think I can cut it out of my old hood and hook you up with it. Picture in profile. -------------------- If anyone needs interior stuff, etc, I'm parting whats left of my celi out. Just ask.

gt4 or zyclone
