Default hood scoop.

i miss my hoodscoop that i had on my wrx. hopefully someone will make an aluminum or carbon fiber hood with a little scoop to one side. that would look so cool. like that turbo suzuki thing (from GT3). that car is so cool.

has anyone seen an bB with a hood scoop yet?

Glad I have both my xB and my WRX

Crusing in the xB and race with the rex :D

WRX owners already have bad names, since we are fast on any road and any road condition

why not just buy a universal one and then mold it or rivet it in?

Sucks to hear about your accident and to keep on topic i wouldnt have a hood scoop. Rather just keep it clean.

It is also sort of silly to have a hood scoop when you have that nice upper "grille" just ready to provide whatever air you might need. You will get better pressure recovery at the grille than you could on a hood scoop.
