Hood scoop

Does anyone know where to get a hood scoop that is bigger similar to the Subaru WRX.
I have seen the mini mania scoop attachment but I want a one piece unit that stands up for a more aggressive look

Is it just me, or does $120 for matching paint seem steep when the price of the scoop itself is $199? Otherwise, I think it's a nice idea for a relatively cheap way to boost the efficiency of the stock or aftermarket intercoolers, and I'll probably get one for my MCS when it finally arrives later this month

For some reason I do not like the look of the M7 - seems out of place to me, to rounded or something and not agressive. I wish there were more options. I love the Subaru "megascoop" as I have heard it called and I would like to see some new scoop design ideas if anyone has any.

I've just painted my carbon fiber hood scoop (recently aquired this weekend).

Anyone who wants a hood scoop painted (m7 or otherwise) I'll charge $75 shipped.

Before I count me chickens 'fore they 'atch, I'll post some pics of mine when I am done.

While we are talking about hood scoops, does anyone know if it's possible to order a standard S scoop in black? If so, any part #s would be greatly appreciated. I'm toying with the idea of doing Checkmate U stripes for my 2005 MCS, but in black as I have a dark silver car.

I wasn't sure if you could vinyl the scoop to be black or if it would be better to replace the scoop with a black one, hence the question :smile:
