At least it wasn't an EB GT scoop. They don't even look right on EB GT's...

how often do you see ford bonnet vents on other makes.
from EL xr to XC vents.
they usually look good on other Fords but not rice mobiles or holdens.

no plenty of other companies make scoops its just that ford are the only ones that make beautiful looking scoops!!!
Honestly name an original holden or any ricer company scoop that looks nice other than the new monaro ones which are jus modified ford XB GT scoops

Actually I think the scoops are the worst part of the EF/EL XR bodykit. Would look horrible on a magna.

true the genuine ones are set into the bonnet but they don't look molded into the bonnet like that...

you can see what I mean by the pic in this thread on KIDDIS car...
