Subaruist Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I have a slight problem with clearance of my air filter housing when I close the hood. I need a hood scoop both because of this, and it seems like an good enough excuse to add to the coolness of my Brat... Anyone have any kind of decent looking hood scoop made of aluminum or sheet metal, etc? I just can;t do plastic on something like this.... Thanks.

Prwa101 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 This is a great one for you! Pretty cheap too. Surprisingly enough you can find them at homedepot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subaruist Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 (edited) ( This is painful...) You are absolutely right.... However, as far as actual looks, at first look I almost threw-up in the back of my throat a little.... - But then, maybe I can make it look better?.... Oh, I must be desparate!... - But there might be a way..... Grrrrrr..... - Oh! Its too tall! I am saved from a grinding dillema... Thank you!

Prwa101 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Haha thought you'd like that. On a seriouse note though, If you got some sheet metal and bondo you could build a pretty nice one though. Or graft a newer Subaru one on there haha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my life is already overwhelmed with endless projects, and overflowing on the "really, really gotta do it" shor list. But yeah, I should think abou that. I know if I decided to make a short-term obsession of it, I could make as good as any. - Oh crap! I just had a vision of a Stainless steel shovel cut off - but no. If only there was some odd, special cooking pan/pot whatever that would make a good scoop. - I just like Stanless, that's all. -Uh oh... ok... Stanless pans.... Hmmmm....... Hmmmmm......

I have not had time to give it much thought or do any 'window shopping' yet, but that does sound like a workable idea! I will have to go thrift-store researching on this! lol...
