    some and more and more and more and
    I didn't add it to the last paragraph because I was already long-winded enough but I was involved with K&N back in 05 when the first scoop came out with the second-generation to make that hood scoop functional and the final verdict from K&N then was that they couldn't get around the all weather situation like snow so they opted out of advancing on in the engineering of a functional system for it,

    I don't mean it needs to be for the intake and I understand the weather aspect of it. On the Celica it transferred air to the exhaust manifold to help with cooling. Better than nothing. I know that's not possible on the v6 tacomas but they could make it somewhat functional for additional cooling in the engine compartment. Even a small opening towards the top would be better than nothing and I wouldn't see too much water getting in

    I too like the sport hood would trade for one for my TRD off-road in Blazing Blue Pearl. In Wisconsin

    There is a thread specifically for trading hoods (scoop/non-scoop). You might want to search for that one and put your info in there.

    You're new, so allow the n00b questions.
    I woke up to the member firmly planted in my skewp at a TW meet. Not taking a picture would be the real crime.
