Side scoops

JTs03v6 · November 24th, 2011, 10:14 AM

How do these come off? Replacing with gt scoops, I've always liked the look better than the v6 scoops for some reason. I think they look more agressive.

mcqueen · November 24th, 2011, 10:41 AM

They just pull right off. I believe there are 6 tabs holding them in. Easiest way to start taking them off is to wrap a cloth around a flat head screwdriver and pry one corner up.

JTs03v6 · November 24th, 2011, 11:04 AM

So there is no hidden bolt behind the backseat arm rest? Sounds easy enough.

No, sir, just 6 tabs holding them on. If your new scoops didn't come with 6 tabs each, you can reuse the ones from your old scoops. Just be aware that they sometimes stay on the car instead of coming off with the scoops. I always used a pair of vise grips to pull them off the car because they hold on tight.

I agree with the GT scoops looking way better than the v6 scoops. I hate how easy you can see the cheap plastic honeycomb on the v6 scoops.
I'm getting gt scoops painted and put on while it is at the shop.

well the early GTs have the same scoops we have so just putting that out there...the more aggressive ones are late GTs and Cobras

SlowSix · November 25th, 2011, 12:40 AM

yeah most people just call them gt scoops though.
Termi scoops are actually a bit different from the 01-04 gt scoops though

^+1. im curious lol

mcqueen · November 25th, 2011, 02:37 AM

^+2. I'm pretty sure the Cobra scoops are the same as the GTs.

GtrTech · November 25th, 2011, 04:57 AM

They are the same just have a different grill.

Cobra

GT

JTs03v6 · November 25th, 2011, 10:47 AM

$75 for the scoops and $75 for paint, does this sound like a good deal?

xi KRON1C ix · November 25th, 2011, 11:01 AM

$75 for the scoops, $10 for paint, do it yourself

Mcqueen has a good write up on paint, just click the link in his sig

JTs03v6 · November 25th, 2011, 11:05 AM

Ive always had a hard time matching this paint...#g2 is the paint code.

I've got the scoops already, just calling around for prices now.

xi KRON1C ix · November 25th, 2011, 11:15 AM

I hear ya, I just have a hard time paying someone to do something when I can do it myself

oh and nothing is harder to match than this yellow, shits close to impossible

SlowSix · November 25th, 2011, 12:16 PM

$75 is what I paid for my scoops. But I was just gonna rattle can them myself until I wrecked my car. Now I'm getting them professionally painted for free! lol

and yeah the inserts are different on cobra scoops. Although I always thought the actual scoop was slightly different also

lol i thought you were talking about the body of them not the grill...the body is what i care about

as for matching paint...try getting sonic blue. on a side note..if you have your paint code go to advance and have them order you a spray can or two of your color if they don't have it in stock...it's how i get my paint now.

Skargon · November 25th, 2011, 02:36 PM

so If I went to Advance and said I needed Atlantic Blue they could order it since they dont even have a spot on the shelf? o:

have them pull up your vehicle on the computer...under the "all parts" section have them click on accessories....have them scroll down to touch up paint...they will offer the touch up paint in the brush and in spray cans if duplicolor makes said color. it's the only way i can get sonic blue easily since we don't stock it in store.
