Gogi & Vikram - My B'day is coming up very soon thanks for the present.

On a serious note don't know how it will gel with the rest of the car and the paint job.

So is mine. You have my order list right?

Bevdey. Theek se padh to sahi.

A black carbon fibre hood will look good with HIS black alloys

My apologies, after 11 pm reading & comprehension does become a problem! Please blame Kingfisher for this!!

speedzak · 26th March 2008, 06:53

Ha ha ha!

Oh my god. I'm gonna jump down the hill with laughter.

If the hood cannot be avoided, then my suggestion is to make 2 sidescoops and give it a very subtle look so that it matches the cars overall stance.

But think again, that Scorpio scoop! ROFLMAO!! Does it include the vehicle too?

viper · 26th March 2008, 09:34

Ok,

After giving it a lot of thought have come up with this idea. One small scoop on the front right side(in front of steering) slightly above the head light to provide cold air to the filter as thats where it is located and very subtle 3 side slits on both fenders.

How does that sound. Giving below 2 pics of the slits on the fender I am thinking of if someone can photoshop them in body colour(bonnet scoop in body colour as well) can decide what will look better.

Exactly what i had posted

Yup very subtle and efficient. Ensure the bonnet slits have a collector to hold rain water and the likes.

moralfibre · 26th March 2008, 09:49

Jiggy, I have seen a couple of Merc 124's with those slits in the fenders. I think you should go for something like that.

heavy_foot · 26th March 2008, 10:24

I think fordrocam had the fender gills on his IKON. Somthing like this in this picture. The fender grills or the M5 also look nice.

Technocrat · 26th March 2008, 13:08

Viper even I would suggest side grills btw how about picking up the vents which were present Opel Astra Club?
