CF Hood Question!

So i bought this cf hood online. it looked like it was a true hood scoop but its accually not. i was wondering if anyone else had this hood and if they have modified it to be a functional hood scoop.

If you're skilled in glass, then it's definitely possible. If not, you could get a professional to do it. As far as "functional" though.. we'll it'll let your engine breathe a little. Hood is def not my style, but congrats none-the-less!

Could you please get a pic of the underside of the hood? this will allow a complete and truthful answer to your question

lol I have to agree with the previous comments about the scoop.

but just cut it with a dremel and it should be all good, take a different angled shot of the scoop. mabey from that angle it looks more Monsterous than it is.

Not my taste. Just cut it out with a sawzaw or something. Not really going to improve cooling that much, but I would want to cut it too.
