what bond is best to use to attach the hoodscoop to the hood. i was driving on the freeway and it began to rip off=/.would it look odd if i completey take i off?
thanks-

 

its a fake scoop, get rid of it. and get rid of the saddlebags (sidescoops) while yur at it.

The stock hood scoop on 99-04s is bolted and glued to the hood, not sure on yours why it would be ripping off if the screws/bolts were still there.

 

Get rid of it? That would look like crap lol.

 

hardly...


It'll look better than that civic you got...lol.

 

it should be bolted on with 6 fasteners. If not, you'll be watching it go orbital someday.

 

Dave, I'd rather have the hood scoop than the f'ing shitty filled holes that are in my hood now..... I'd like to find the dealership you bought the car from and slap them in the back of the head.

 

its the front sides of the scoop thats off the hood,the bolts are still on, but when driving on the freeway, air enters underneath it and it starts to lift up to a point where it looks like its gonna tear off.

 

tighten it up?

and dont take off the scoop. zigs a plain gay.

 

theres no bolts on the tip of the scoop.that part i think is glued no?
yea i pictured the no hoodscoop and it doesnt look right.

 

waah. you got a nice car for about a grand more than just the mods cost.

 

LMAO

 

now I know what you're talking about... no real fix that I know of. It just flutters at high speeds.

 

JB weld that sumbitch!


just kidding, take the scoop off and have the hood holes fixed.

 

Dave, remove stick from ***. KTHX.

 

say whaaa?? I didnt misrepresent anything....stop looking at my ***.

 

LOL. I'm not going anywhere near that one.

I just can't believe that they did such a horrible job filling the holes on the hood, if I lived anywhere near the shop that did it I would take it to them and embarass them as much as possible. They seriously look bad, and the paint is starting to flake because they are so uneven and dimpled.

OP: Just make sure that all of the bolts are tightened correctly, I would recommend just going hand tight since it's probably plastic.. Other than that I really don't think you can do much of anything else because that particular part of the scoop is so visible inside and out.

 

wasnt that bad when I had it. I had to try to see them. I couldnt ever see them while driving, so I was fine with it. Guess the filler they used is shrinking. sucks.

 

WN just buy a scoop and paint it.

at least youll know where to drill the holes. :P

 

Nah, Gonna get a small cowl eventually not going to waste the money/time on a scoop.
