Agree, the hood looks great. Are the scoops functional, or just cosmetic? And, if functional, do they affect the warrantee in any way?

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
'92 Civic Si, Centerforce Dualfriction clutch, no front license plate.
'84 Alan Record Carbonio, Aerospoke wheels, Sugino AT crankset, Campy brakes (I think, hard to tell underneath the protective coat of grease and dirt).
'98 Honda "Harmony" 5.0 h.p. mulching mower, stock.
2000 silver SVT Lightning on order (the lawnmower will have to go).

Alphadoggy,
They are not currently functional, but a kit is available thru Autobahn. My dealer doesn't have many problems w/most of my mods, but they said Ford would be put out about a ram-air hood and that it probably would affect the warranty. They figure a little H2O in the engine compartment would be a really bad thing.

Zoomer,
That's the idea. It looks mena just sitting still.
Whitelite,
Untrue! The white ones I have seen have blacked in the intake wells and it gives a different but very cool effect. I have also seen red ones like that and they work too.
