I have been thinking along the lines of doing it like it is but more inline with the contours of the bonnet and only a few inches past the front of the scoop

ok the bonnet is not getting painted. A signwritter in as we speak in the process of printing an image to vynil that will cover the whole bonnet. The scoop will then be fitted back onto the bonnet and the outter edge of the bonnet and around the scoop will be airbrushed to help blend them into the orignal colour of the car

heres the pics. the signwritter has the choice as i cant decide. He prefers the second one but he is unsure if he can get that sort of effect when he plays with the image

VERY NEAT, DONT LIKE THE LOOK UNDER THE BONNET


Im with the same feeling, that blue stands out like a sore toe.. I would be more inclined to go black, or same color as the car..
or maybe a bit of both worked in together..

it is still gettting cool air to the motor either way mate, how do u think hornett scoops work, they force air into the motor to keep temps down but too also provide more air to the motor if they have a filter there,
