JackyBoi Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 This is the scoop I'm talking about (bottom left of bonnet) Does anyone know what they're called, or anyone who sells them, or even better a company that can have one made for my current OEM bonnet? I really like how it looks not to mention all that extra air for the turbo also what are people's opinions on them? (Personally I love it or obviously I wouldn't be writing this post!) thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Its a complete bonnet, like abflug. You can get the Skyline/ Pulsar vents in fibreglass and mount to a oem bonnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 As above. Personally I wouldn't try fitting any aftermarket bonnet scoop to a Supra bonnet. It will need cutting and filling to look right, and the filler ALWAYS crack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 As above. Personally I wouldn't try fitting any aftermarket bonnet scoop to a Supra bonnet. It will need cutting and filling to look right, and the filler ALWAYS crack. I had an aftermarket scoop fitted to my standard bonnet. Never cracked once. I've got more pictures somewhere. I'll dig them out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Fair one Al, but that's a first for me. I'm sure you'll have seen plenty that have cracked. That looks spot on actually, doesn't look stuck in like most. Naz has a a starlet one on his which looks great, although I think I remember him saying that his was starting to go now, although i could well be wrong.

JackyBoi Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 Here are some more photos That's looks absolutely spot on Al just probably a smaller profile for me. Who/where did you have this work carried out? PM if you like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Oh this was years ago on my first supra. Body shop in Wiltshire did the work. The vent was an eBay one too. To be honest, I loved the look. On my next bonnet I will be getting another one doing. Haven't decided which vent/scoop to use yet. I like to be different Plus it's functioning.

Yeah, but his is also dead centre so there would be more movement and heat I'm guessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look really close you can see the rivots in mine but I do like that no one else has one also having options to add carbon accessories to it is the main reason why I did it The issue with mine is that the bonnet is ali and the scoop is steel so there was no way to join them together. Also it looks a bit messed up from underneath but thats one of my jobs to do next is to tidy it up...AND also to straighten that IC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 yes similar, but easier to find than one of those Although it's likely the Ferrari bonnet is Aluminium, so fitting would be easier. Bet a used 550 or 575m bonnet costs a fortune though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
