Re: Cowl Scoop

Orence1- are you planning to just glue it to the top or cutout a hole and mount from underneath?. I had a fiberglass scoop riveted and smoothed into my last truck and it didn't last long. It looked great for 3 months. The problem was the body filler started to crack where it was feathered into the existing hood. This was due to vibration and closing the hood. Maybe if you can weld the edge somehow and grind it down to minimize filler it would last. My buddy did his GTO 5 years ago and it still looks good. Good luck.
