Adding scoop but have no idea how.

My friend and I are building up his 95 Contour and we have a question on how to modify his hood to accept this. His CAI is right underneigth but how do we mold it? Using fiberglass? Sheet metal? Thanks

both, you can slit the metal in the areah you want it to be in, then use a filler panel to put on the bottom of the intake. now use the filler to hide all the welds and smooth it out. then paint it and there you go, one pimpin contour with a v-spec II scoop.

thanks

when you slit the metal, be carfull when bending it down, you need to get a crisp edge the first time or it will look like ****.
