Hmmm...dunno what to think actually. At first glance they look kinda cool, but I wonder of that "nostril" look fits the car.
I kinda would like to see just what the one center scoop looks like.
Still, it looks pretty neat...and I'm sure you'll see better results from it.

is it a functional scoop? please say yes ! :rolleyes:ditto on all counts... seems to muddle up the hood too much for my liking. I agree with the idea of just one in the middle. I'm really interested to know if/how they are functional. I admire the originality though, if he likes them it's all good.

I agree with some of the above comments. Maybe if they extended a little farther forward in the middle, a bit like a '71-'73 Mustang ram air hood it'd be better.
Please say you'll blend them better when you get a chance, they look too universal-fit tacked on for my tastes...
Neat concept, I just don't know if I would have taken the same approach.

I knew in Canada the drinking age was lower but I had no idea that the driving age as younger too. 
If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?

Looks too much like a Grand Prix ram air hood. I like GP's but that hood design doesn't mesh well with the lines of the car. If you could make a whole new hood with those style of scoops that'd look cool. But it's starting to grow on me. It does look neat though.
A functional hood would be the $hit
