    Fitting bonnet scoop

    Hey guys just wondering if anyone has fitted an intercooler scoop to the gq bonnet. I was supplied a gu scoop with the intercooler kit but it doesn't fit the contours of my bonnet as gu bonnets are pretty much flat. If anyone has fitted one of these or another scoop or has an info that could help I would appreciate it. Thanks

    The contour of the gq is quite flat too, they don't mount in the centre though where the indent is.

    Never done it myself but should be straight forward. Cut and prime and the scoop bolts from underneath.

    Interested to hear from someone who has done it for any pointers??,

    doesn't it need a spacer to fill the void from the bonnet contour?

    I've seen a lot of people offset the gu ones or even double up each side.

    You would need to do something of course if you wanted it centred.

    I will have one spare when I upgrade my intercooler and scoop, and I'm more than happy to pass it over to you.
    I'll even give you a discount.
