nothing wrong with a functional scoop. Just as long as its not the standard 'wrx' look alike item.

IMO something like a wider version of the GU Patrol bonnet scoop would suit the shape of the car.

i quite like the forrester sti scoop. I'm pretty sure its different to the wrx one. Maybe its the whole asthetics of the car that make it look different. Might be something to look into since it would actually be functional.

Its personal preference, and i had a mate photoshop a WRX scoop onto my car. If i had the picture i would post it for all to see. But be prepared to cop it if you have a bonnet scoop. Hahaha i copped it from Chris' brother at school just for mentioning scoop hehe :P

I think something more like a vent rather than a scoop would look better.
ie. think Hiro's got some nice looking ones.

wouldn't it be more aerodynamic to use a muffin tray with the dishes in it?
