The scoop I want from Roush is a bolt on deal that just sits on top. I'd make it fit the xB hood contour first then paint to match and drill a few mounting holes or just use 3M to attatch.

Here is the hood scoop link:

sorry guys I was the original poster. I was curious if this was a problem if any. I didnt know, never had a vented hood. I actually want the Stinger (Camaro SS) Style CF Hood for my toaster. Think it looks mean.

Sorry ?? For what? You asked a valid question and I think you got a number of valid responses and solutions

That i think is what these forums are for.

Yeah, it's all good that is what we are here for. To bounce off ideas and ask questions. That is what the Scion family does for one another.

I think sometimes feelings dont get conveyed over the forum...so dont worry I dont think anybody means any harm...and dude, nothing to be sorry about, no harm no foul, we're all family here... a dysfunctional brady bunch. ;)
