Non were made for the 96 to 98 models, but the hood is a perfect fit if you wanted one, certifit.com sells them cheap but its primed and local pick up only.
ok thanks, ya theres one not to far from wehre i live and we have paint left over from the repaint, about how much do you think it will cost?

No hood insulators till 99, im sure he could get some mesh and just make it work in the scoop, instead of paying $150 for some crap he doesnt need. The hood i think is $55.

Im sure one of these guys that are close will offer too, but it will be a lot to ship unless they have a business that ships a lot.

Yeah, got mine for 56 bucks, but spent 175 on scoop insert and hardware. Then there's paint on top of that...

Yeah dude, any hood from any year 4Runner 96-02 will interchange.
I searched pretty extensively to find the best deal, the scoop I had to buy from Toyota as it's just not produced aftermarket...
ok thanks, ya i have a 98' base in Anthracite Metallic, and i wanna make it look better so im trying to figure out things to do to it like the hood and im thinking about grey fender flares
ok i found a site that replaces parts from toyota and i found the scoop, but i dont know which part to get.

Sport Hood w/ Scoop for 98'
Here's a good write up on the 99'+ sport hoods (w/ scoop):
Toyota Hood Scoop
If you've got a certi-fit nearby I'd go there and get a hood from them. They run like $89.50. You'll have to buy the internals to the scoop after purchasing the hood and this is the best place I've found to get 'em:

* #18) gets you the whole kit with everything needed. It is $101.86

Ok, so why would you take a scooped hood that is open and letting in air functionally and then cap it off and make it fake??
throw some mesh in there with a cut piece of furnace filter behind it and reap the benefits of your engine and intake getting more air...
paint if you wish!

I think if you saw what it looks like without the insert you might think otherwise. Even if it was functional.. what'll it cool? The firewall or the back of the throttle body? Apparently our scoop wouldnt flow much air anyhow, similar to the bed of a truck how there's a little trapped air pocket.
not trying to sound like a jerk but I dont know how else to put it

If you throw some mesh like what people put on the back of their grills like Duhockey just said and i said earlier, you wouldnt even notice the difference between it and stock, and then it is somewhat functional and is $150 cheaper.

If this was true than there would be no reason why they would sell the scoop inserts and all the parts to it. The scoop isn't going to be functionally either way. If you don't buy the inserts for the scoop and just leave it with how the hood comes than it'll look like crap. You guys should look up what it looks like cause it doesn't look good. It's worth the extra $100 bucks to make it look right... Just saying my personal opinion
