Thoughts on this hoodscoop?

[SoFloT4Run]

I came across a fb posting showcasing this 4runner and some other tacomas and tundras. Who makes this hoodscoop and what do you guys think of it?


Heres a tacoma with it

Not a fan.
Definitely looks like cheap aftermarket.

YMMV

SR5 with a stick-on "scoop". Sad.

If you get it and it makes you happy then that's all that matters. If you like it, I like it. Cheers.

It's fugly! Considering the scoop is non-functional ... what's the point?

Wheels yes, scoop no

I like the wheels

I agree but the same can be said for the OEM scoop.

The OEM scoop doesn't look like someone draped a rubber welcome mat over your hood. So uh...yeah.

Looks like a big dog took a big dump on the hood

I didn't like my OEM scoop and seriously thought about trading it for a flat hood until I painted the tip and thought, meh ... Ok.

Don't listen to the haters, man. Hood scoops are where it's at. Even a stick on, non functional hood scoop will net you like 50 hp. I swear to God that's true, I read it on the internet!

Another little known trick from the tuner world; stickers. Keep this on the downlow, but did you know each performance part supplier sticker you put on your car or truck will net 5hp each? K&N, Borla, Bilstein, even TRD! And those Autozone fender vents will get you 10hp for each fender! But they have to be the chrome ones, if you screw around and try to make them better with plasti-dip you actually go negative 10hp, so be careful with your mods!!

:thumb: :beer:

I prefer the factory scoop, but like someone else said, it's your truck. If it makes YOU happy, nobody else's opinion matters. Unless maybe they're paying for your vehicle and the mods.

Not a fan of Hood "scoops" in general, but this one looks like glue-on fingernails from the Dollar Store.

"If it makes YOU happy, nobody else's opinion matters."
Well, he did ASK for other's opinions.

Personally I don’t like hood scoops unless functional or needed.

All these hood ornaments do is take away from visibility on the trail or road.

Even from a pure aesthetics standpoint, not really feeling it.

....maybe if it had those stick-on Buick fender vents. Hmmmmm......
