hmmm, are you looking to make it functional? I dont even know where to start. I think that hood already came like that, so if you're just looking for the scoops you will have to cut the hood, unless thats your intention. Other than that, you can always look at ebay or get a fiberglass or carbonfiber shop make you a custom hood

taiwan proteges dooood :)

i dont dig the vents, but id try like vis, buddy club 2, carbon creations, etc and find universal scoops. like dis said, ull probably have to custom it on to your current hood

That looks pretty sweet. I'm not into the typical EVO hood look but like something a little different. That appears to be ram-air rather than venting hot air. I feel you would need a child swollowing STI scoop to really do sufficient air collecting.

cut your hood ... push it down ... and glass the sides and you will have a vent ... there is a how to and doing it to make an extractor hood ... that on with the big vent that lets air vent out :).

try erebuni.com they have all kinds of universal vents then you just cut the hood and mold them in, same concept as the Z3 fenders where you cut a slot out of your fender and mold em in

That's definately a custom hood, the hood has no crease or body lines that the stock hood has. Also, the front edge of the hood doesn't exactly match the points at the front of the fenders -- comes out a little too far.
Personally, I think the car looks WAY too busy, especially with that mitsu bumper and that silly roof scoop.

Unless you're going to run a new snorkel, the scoops will be just-for-show. Vents could be functional... but they also let a ton of dirt and mositure into the engine compartment.
