Hood with the scoop

[HPI_Savage25]

Ok so my girlfriend has a 2005 Toyota 4runner limited edition. She wants to get a hood scoop so I'm looking at buying a new hood that has the hood scoop and getting it painted. Just wanted to make sure that they would bolt up and everything and if I need to get anything else. Also where is the best place to get them from?

Thanks!

I checked into this after I had gotten into a front-end accident over the winter. The hood with the scoop opening is almost exactly the same price as the SR5/Limited, but what really hurts the wallet is the new insulation (yes it's different for the scoop) and the plastic inserts for the scoop. The new hood and paint job was going to be covered by my insurance but the cost to me for the additional parts was still going to be about $350. I LOVE the scoop, but couldn't justify the cost so I stuck with the Limited hood. If it was functional I probably would have, but since it is just cosmetic, I just couldn't convince myself (or the wife) that it was worth it. My .02, and to each his own (read, wallet).

I've looked into this several times myself. Some members have cut the sr5/limited hood lining to fit the sport hood but you also have to buy the scoop insert stuff and have that painted as well.
