ROUSHME661 · July 25th, 2007, 08:04 PM

El_Cangri · July 25th, 2007, 08:10 PM

i'm too lazy to remove my sidescoop and show u

just get a flat screw drive and a paper or something so u dont scratch the paint.. then slowly star to pull the thing out.. look for the tabs so u can unhook it faster..

scubasteve041186 · July 25th, 2007, 08:17 PM

i thought they were like glued on

El_Cangri · July 25th, 2007, 08:29 PM

nah

HMUSN · July 25th, 2007, 08:32 PM

they are tabbed on.

just like half the car.

99% of the time they break when trying to take them off.

if you are going to be painting them anyway I have a set of white v6 ones you can have for free minus shipping of course.

and the tabs are in fact intact on them.

02ponypackage · July 25th, 2007, 08:36 PM

there not the full scoops rite lol ^

JASonic · July 25th, 2007, 08:37 PM

dude, if you do that, post some pics. I want to see how it turns out. if your doing the whole thing in black, it might not be bad. Any other color might stick out too much.

Good luck...

02ponypackage · July 25th, 2007, 08:38 PM

ive seen it done on his color car already...looks like rice

02ponypackage · July 25th, 2007, 08:39 PM

HMUSN · July 25th, 2007, 08:41 PM
