AB i just finished watching this weeks episode of 4wdTV and unexpectedly i was the Your Rig for tonight. Was a good spot and i will see if i can get a copy to embed into this thread.

It is not currently hosted at 4x4Earth so when it goes online i'll get it over here. Or......I'll give Danny a bell and see if he can organise it for me.

4x4earth does not seem to have been updated with eps for at least 3 or 4 months.

It's just what the doctor ordered mate - how did you fit it so clean over the centre bonnet lines??

I cut the holes under it, i left the centre bracing in place for the bonnet as i did not want to compromise the strength of the bonnet at all, mainly cause i was hanging my intercooler off the bonnet under that scoop. Most guys i have seen just cut it out. I dont think it gets in the way and the bonnet is factory tough.

Once i was clear on where the scoop would sit on the bonnet i then built up the centre dip down with fibre bog at the front and the back of the scoop. took a bit of stuffing around and then finished it with Sikaflex, sanded it down and kept the hard edge at the top so it would look factory the sprayed it. I am not sure if i have any close up shots of the scoop? i'll have a look and post if i find them for you Scotty.

Leave it with me mate. I did see your thread the other day about scoops but you were talking about forward or backwards and i was in a rush so did not chime in. I will see what i can find for ya mate.
