I like it!! it looks fine to me. I'm not a big fan of scoops if they are not functional though...That would work with a mini cone filter on the TB. But it seems would suck in rain water un less it had a deflector in side to direct the air down. it may creat too much under hood air pressure, but if you went with the hood louvers it may create a nice flow of air in and out....am I over thinking this? Oh..and I'm not sure about losing the emblem on the front. Maybe a smaller one on the front cap would do it..

It looks good! Now get that hood and bumper shot with a fresh coat of polo green and you should replace the air dam while you're at it. A white or silver center racing stripe would look nice with the hood scoop.

It looks very cool much better then the other after market hoods. Like the other are saying its going suck in a lot of dirt. I would think a cheap foam prefilter would take care of that.

Whatever color its going to look badass, Chevy shoulda done something like that from the getgo and made it functional to a point. It will look subtle when colored.
