IIRC, Kris was saying that he was going to be molding them into the hood and making them functional. Thumbs up is for being original, just haven't seen any car that those twin scoops look good on myself... but then looks are subjective so I'll shut up now.

Screw these guys- way to be an original...
A single scoop in the middle would not be as good as one over an open element filter (driver's side). At least with two, it has balance.
No more looking like a sleeper for you though. Have people been gunning for you on the strip?

Hi Kris,
Wow! No longer a sleeper is right. In time this mod is going to come together nicely. Be proud, you are one of the first CEG'ers to be brave enough to chop holes in there rides (on purpose that is). I will have to watch out for you. The "K" below is also for Kris.

seriously svt kris, your awesome for doing this. I do like the way it looks, and for mine I'm thinking of maybe using just one of those over the intake. Anyways looks sweet! Good job at making those functional!

Nice...its looks a little incomplete. Maybe lower your car and put some nice 17's onthere and that would complete the "don't mess with my grocery getter" look.
You cut the front grill? What is that for? Some kind of ram air?
