^ agree with all re "looks" vs "performance" and real world cooling being the whole point. but some i imagine would like an exterior "add on" piece to LOOK as if it's improving performance all while doing so?.. but the manthey's ALSO looked badda**.. to me anyway...and i have a feeling these would ( do? ) too!.. IF they could actually be seen!?

agree also with "matte" black. shiny is.. well,.. shiny.

That looks really good Tim. Thanks for the pictures.
Some 800 grit wet sandpaper would give the scoops a matte finish. I make all my parts shiny. It's easier to get parts out of a well polished mold and they can be sanded to go to matte but it would be very difficult going matte to shiny by polishing.

Are yours going to be painted or carbon? If they where all carbon bits might look really nice on Seal Grey.

Look great Go great these are ****ing insane im making so much more power at speed that i spun all four wheels coming on to the freeway PSM off at 60mph in 4th gear I wasnt doing that before. Thats with a wavetrac and 4wd

Fuel consumption has dropped too, if you care about that?

Do yourselves a favour and get some you cant go wrong they are wicked.

Cheers men,
Tim

Joe is sending me carbon with a weave blemish since I plan to paint anyway. I'm planning to temp mount to see what carbon looks like. I can share pics to show on seal grey.

Tim, looks REALLY nice. Looks like they could be OEM option code LIS (larger intercooler scoops)...

Did joe paint them for you or you had them painted locally?
