I love it when I see stick on hood vents installed crooked on the street! Always makes me laugh

 

Where is the "scoop" part?

Install is a breeze and no drilling means one thing. Double sided tape.

If $239 of tape on fakery makes one happy....... Rough Country will help you out.

 

I really wanted one of their Insta-Winches...

 

That is about the goofiest looking tape on hood scoop I've ever seen!

 

Personally, I like the smooth look of the hood on my SR5 so I wouldn't add that. But you do you. If that's a part you want to drop on your truck, go for it!

 

As neat as it looks, I sometimes am annoyed at how the hood scoop on my TRD Sport sticks up and blocks the view. It's not much, but it's not nothing. An aftermarket scoop's going to have the same problem. Don't forget to factor that into your decision to get something like this.

 

Why would you do that to yourself....
I also have a sport...
I loved the clean look of the sr5, still do...
Theres things I love about the sport, the hood scoop is something I never will.....
Everyone I spoke to trying to get a brain massage from prior to the purchase, thought the scoop made it look better....
I know me personally, I would NOT be putting a scoop on something that originally didnt come one....

 

I agree, driving this truck is like driving an 18 wheeler sometimes visibility-wise. I have power seats and I learned to raise the seat up as high as it will go, which helps to see things better.

 

My wife says it looks “inappropriate”, I tend to agree.

 

Same!
Cranked to the moon is how I always roll, I’m short 5’8”…

 

Wish I was 5'8" . As for the scoop, oh my, chintzy...

 

I'm not sure what she means by that. Does she mean it in the same way as people meant about the front of the Ford Edsel?

 

I’m not sure. I just thought her choice of words was funny.
