~Hood scoop~fun question~
Here is a good one (I think).
What is the weirdest thing you ever found in your hood scoop?
For example: a dead chipmunk, crayon, a quarter, etc.
~8^ ) Also.....
I hope everyone has a safe and joyous T day.

What kind of screen?
What kind of screen?
I think it's possible to fashion a screen for less money if you can find a suitable screening material at a Home Depot or Lowe's and if you make a template out of cardboard or card stock. I painted my screen a gloss black and used black nylon ties to secure it to the STi hood scoop I installed on my car. I did not drill the supports as Egan did.
I use a simple diverter (splitter) that installs within the WRX intercooler seal. The price today is even cheaper than when I ordered a year ago. Some observations by the fellow who makes these diverters.

This is the story of a guy that bought an STI from me. Sacramento & Reno regional forum.

"Oh, well. He's dead", I remember telling my son as I came to a stop sign.
As I come to a full stop, the damn little finch flew out with full afterburners lit!
