its in the process anyway, its taking forever since i put it on there with glue, screws, and fiberglass, its very difficult to take all that back off but its getting there

i wish i could keep it but during installing it i didnt factor in one thing, water going through the sides of the scoop and out the front

i figured it would never be a problem but i guess i was wrong, the rust kept coming through everything in the front of the scoop and cracking, so i had to take it off, i didnt want to bother to keep fixing it, so a saw and a big ass grinder fixed my problems :)
 
very nice kit, always looks the best in white for some reason, maybe blame the henshin auto civic and integra. The roof scoop looked wierd without a wing, i like the shaved rear end with no wing, but with the roof scoop, it seemed like you needed a wing with it. Show the after pics!!
 
car is primered-kept it that way so that if (and when) cracks showed up in my body kit (fully molded) and roof scoop they are easily fixed

well my body kit hasnt cracked and the scoop is going, so its time to paint :)

i have a wing, an eclipse spoiler, just not installed
 
Roof scoops are nice if you've removed your HVAC for weight savings in a fully built rally car! That is until you drive into a deep puddle and get a gallon of water inside the cabin.
