I replaced the stock black plastic hood scoop (mail slot) insert with a mirror finish stainless steel insert from Emblempros. It's backed with 3M adhesive. I'm a little biased, but I think it looks pretty cool. I like how it will reflect everything around it. The pics show it before and after

Ugly, paint it black chrome and it would be awesome! A little black contrast on a white car always looks good.

Looks good on white and with the blacked out bow tie. Had that item on my mod list and still have not decided, I have an IOM and I am really starting to like the de-badge clean stock look.

I think it looks good on SIM, ties together the bow tie rather well ...

crap, I was hoping the first comment would be "nice, that's cool" haha, but anyway, it's SIM, but black chrome is a good idea

so does that mail slot not really force air into the engine then? cuz obviously that new piece is blocking any airflow.

I like it tho.

Nope.

How about a picture from a little farther back - hard to see how it fits in overall.

I think it looks good!

Chris-10 · 04-06-2010, 06:20 PM

hard to tell from the pic so close, but i think it would look good with the silver

2010SLVRBULIT · 04-06-2010, 06:54 PM

has anyone thought of using the mail slot as an air intake(aerodynamically stable?)...
