wow, i really like how it came together. i'm assuming that's the accolade MS front, right? i'm still not sold on the hood scoop but i think it's just b/c it's different and i could see it growing on me. very nicely done.

Great looking scoop, Drew!

What brand is it? Where did you find one that fit so well?

it doesnt really have a brand?


i bought it off a guy on the net who fabricates fibreglass parts.

there was also a carbon option but since it was getting panted and weight was minimal, i went for the fibreglass one.

fit perfectly! Just had to cut a hole into the hood to make it "functional"
