Cervini vs. C/S side scoops pics please

I was hoping those of you that have the Cervini side scoops or the C/S side scoops could post some pics so I could compare them side by side to see which ones I like better. I like different things about each, and I know I want some scoops it is just a matter of deciding which ones to get.

Thanks in advance for the pictures.

Thanks for the pics guys. Is it just me or do the shapes of the scoops look pretty similar? Anyone else have pictures they can share, preferably a profile shot.

They are similar. The Cervini's angles back more on the upper side giving it a more agressive look.

The CS version is more of a rectangle, the Cervinis scoop is more of a trapezoid. If I was at home, I'd run out and snap a few pics, but here's a straight on side shot of mine. I think the Cervini's flows better with the body shape, and the lack of a grill gives it depth, appearing to be functional. Moreso than the CS version at least. i don't mind the profile of the CS version that much, but I don't like the grill.

the CS sticks out more I believe.... the Cervinis is a bit "flatter" closer to the body of the car. I'd love to see them side by side as well, especially on a darker car.

Personally I find the shape of the CS side scoops much more complimentary to the lines of the car. The angles on the Cervini scoop are much too angular for my tastes.

I like the inserts on the CS scoop because they tie back into the front grill of the car. When I look at the car from either front corner I see continuity from the grill to the scoop. While it would be nice for the scoops to have more depth I think I'd be more worried about them collecting debris given that my car is a daily driver. There are too many bozo's in this world that would use an open scoop as an impromptu trash can if given the opportunity.

Thanks for all the replies and pictures so far everyone. They are helping a lot. I know this isn't part of the title, but does anyone have the BBR scoops? How do they compare? How do they attach to the car? If you have pictures of them I'd like to see those too as the pics on the site don't really show that great of an angle.

Thanks again.

The BBR scoops are $$$; and judging from the photo, they appear to be Cervini as well.

Have you looked into 3d carbon?

They're similar to the cs, but are urethane and don't require drilling...

I would definitely stay away from the BBR scoops. Aside from the price, they don't flow with the body well. Especially without the rest of the kit.

BBR scoopes aren't the same as the cervinis. But understand my BBR scoopes are modified and then they where molded into the body of the car.

I feel the BBR scoopes flow perfectly with the body, atleast they do on my car.

My post said "especially without the rest of the kit". They look alright with the kit, but if I'm just analyzing the scoops themselves, they dont seem to fit right. The angle of the opening isn't right. It doesn't flow with the door crack.

I would take a picture of the door open and of the scoope from the front showing the door jam,but I haven't access of the car for atleast a month, a new project being done to the car,but once I get it back I'll take pictures of the door opening,with a close up of the scoope. un-like your scoopes,mine are molded into the body and there are no lines. the door opening is flush with scoope.The only reason I know this is I did the molding in on the scoopes myself. this took a long time to do to get it right,not just sticking a scoope on with the 3M tape, the Cervinis looks good also,but I'll have to argue with you on the fittment of the scoopes.
By the way very nice car!

Ok, my first post was a bit harsh. BTW, thank you, and nice one yourself. What I should have said is that I personally don't care for those scoops, because the angle of the opening of the scoop, looking from the side, doesn't line up with the angle of the door crack. The Cervini's does and that's why I like them. Though, I probably will be buying the BBR/Ronaele rear bumper, because I don't like the skirt from Cervini's as much as the BBR/Ronaele bumper.

Here's a quick illustration of what I mean.
