I just have one of the bonnet scoops, the airbox we modded ourselves.

I so have to take more photos ffs, Im sick of using the same ones over and over.. (these arent even my photos, thanks to who ever took them at last years All Ford day!)

Sorry, but i dont really have a better shot of the acctuall scoop.




I cant really help you out with much, but show you a few photos of my setup :(
I bought the scoop from a guy that was making them (about a year ago now), on fordmods forum.
