    all tore up already
    It isn't a hood scoop. Its structural steel stamping to keep hood from vibrating. Never heard of a scooped hood coming unglued.

    Now everyone shut up about it doesn't have a function

    What's the the function of a garter belt honestly? Let's be real, usually they can be done without...but there's a certain je ne sais quoi about them...Garters and hood scoops occupy the same space in the brain. They offer nothing real or tangible yet they make all the difference. These are the little extras that make life worth living.

    At least you won’t have to worry about the scoop breaking down on you. I can only imagine the headaches crawl control systems are gunna cause down the road plus on the 18s with the Toyota safety sense ( that’s why I opted for a 17)

    LOL, one of my buddies is a die hard muscle car wrench turning type. He was so excited for me to lift the hood the first time I pulled up to show off the Taco. LOL, the look on his face when he seen the engine. I still crack up...Mag wheels, chrome pipes and racing stripes.

    Ok I’ll come clean, I’ve decided to get the knight rider kitt left to right red bouncing LED for the scoop. Going to change Siri’s voice to kitts, change her gender to a he, name him kitt, and add a turbo boost so I can jump over you a-holes in traffic to get to your girls place first, I didn’t want to admit this but some of you left me with no choice.

    Better, not best. Sport owners only need to up grade if they're going to the mall. :boink::wave:
