Nice. My cousin who owns a body shop has been trying to talk me into doing a slight, small scoop towards the driver side of the hood. I know he can make it look good & does quality work but I'm just not so sure about. Can you photoshop a NBP TL-S with a hood scoop on your spare time for me?

ndub

looks pretty real i must admit. i took it (scoop) off the world's ugliest ACCORD!!!

ndub

trouble with putting a real scoop on your TL is avoiding the tractorpull look. maybe get the V-shaped flushscoop.

mmmm, tractor pulls are all the rage in Kentucky...

LOL^^


and am i the only one who thinks that its a good chopped? i actually like it...functioning or not.

ndub

murdaz, I think it looks too "mustang." I had fun shoppin it tho. Or were you talking about the ACCORD?!? :P

lol haha comin from the guy who called me a ricer for talkin about a scoop 6 months ago lol Murdaz...

Aspec_03tl-s

hey dude can you shop 2 scoops like that but juts make them lower so they dont look so apparent....

ndub

are scoops rice? I see scoops more as an american-type craze... muscle cars. sure, the Japanese rallycross cars all have scoops or snorkles, but that's another matter entirely.

Aspec_03tl-s

don't make it look so much like a scoop just have nice twin indents on the hood more towards the front.

ndub

do you mean Pontiac-style, inverted scoops?

Aspec_03tl-s

ya but if you make it 1/4 of that width the curve in the hood doesnt need to be like a skateramp.....like those but not 2 piece though just two little 1/4 slits about 8 inches long on the front of the hood like those inverted ones.

I actually think it looks pretty cool, maybe if it was a little furthur up toward the windshield it might look better. Kinda like a subaru

Aspec_03tl-s

ya but even thats a lil to scoopish and i think it need to be twin cause of the way the hood divides in 2 IMO

Aspec_03tl-s

I really like these ones but i still find them a lil big...if the space was half as big you'd be able to start curbing the hood much closer to the actual scoop giving it a more natural look. Im thinkin more like 1/4 inch up two 3/8 at the max.

if i had this, snow would be all up in there. lol

Aspec_03tl-s

lol ya just add a nice mesh to stop it from gettin in obviously chrome would look best IMO

ndub

as I imagined, it looks awful...

im talking about how well he did the chopped, how it flows with the hood lines...you wanted a charger hood scoop on it, and wasnt that your first choice in mods too? .........

Aspec_03tl-s

lol i actually find those kinda nice but still a lil bit to big....and it needs a nice mesh to fil it in.

Aspec_03tl-s

try just one and make it central i wanna see the difference plz

Aspec_03tl-s

and as far as the mod goes it was for heat in the engine bay.....personally i think those scoops look alot better then gutting the whole top of the hood and wiper part.....and its probably way the funk more effective.

vented hoods make your car faster....

ndub

that S2000 is so cold. the vents work, i bet it's loud as hell.

jonmizu

to tell you the truth its not really that bad haha but what i can figure out is the vents only go back words so like the hot air goes towards the windshield but no hood scoop to let cold air travel and i guess help push the hot air out but it does help with engine temps lol

jonmizu

I wonder how vents would look on the TL hood...(hopes for a photoshop from ndub )

jonmizu

yeah im from oahu well town side lol i was wondering if theres any local guys here

and idk might look too aggressive the harsh thing about vented hoods is tht unless the car looks aggressive its hard to pull off when my car was stock just drop and this hood it looked kinda ricer haha i dont think i even had rims on at the time lol i ended up having to garage it too to some vandalism

ndub

jon is right. too aggressive for a 4-door luxury sedan.

2-door scoops/vents = hot sex
