Haven't seen anyone post these window scoops. I personally think they are the best yet. It looks like they MIGHT even be functional. They are by Razzi:

Also found one by "Asti" or something...but I don't like it at all.

Yeah, I like the first picture you have, those are the best scoops I've seen so far. Do you have a website for them and a price?

Razzi also has a body kit comeing out. I dont like the front but I think the back extention would look sweet with the Blow By Racing lnr front end. Here is a link to there 05 page Razzi

Not sure. Besides Razzi's site I found them here: http://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/...tang-scoop.htm

Hey, those do look great, I like them too! Functional? As in you replace the window and it comes with a complete vent mechanism for the inside? For $143 I doubt it. Great find! Anyone have a full side shot showing the entire car?

No...but I wish I did.

The bad part is I don't like quarter window scoops without side scoops (it just doesn't work for me). But I don't know of a decent set of side scoops that would go with these. The Xenons MIGHT work...but really if you use Xenon side you have to use Xenon quarter. No other side scoops I have found would match these.

I like the first pic of the scoops. So I asked if they will be selling them pre-painted in factory colors.

Here is the response from Razzi tech support:

Not yet, but we will be pre-painting them in the near future.....probably about 3-4 weeks.
Thanks!

I really wish they'd make some scoops or quarter-windows that actually were functional and replaced the current glass. I didn't pay 24k for my GT just to stick something on with double sided tape.

But by far - these are the best looking ones I've seen. Although louvers on my back window are slowly growing on me. If I do that I might have to get louvers on the 1/4s

Oops...I may have turned them black and white when I resized them...let me try to fix that.

yes its weird because they also have a set of a V-6 with a body kit and it is also black and white...in both pictures the pieces are not painted either, so maybe thats why they do it?

That quarter window vent sticks out way too far. I personally don't like either "vents" because they are obviously not real vents... there is no opening in the back of the quarter window ones. The original vents were true vents and had an opening in the front and the back, allowing air to pass through. These will just create aerodynamic drag.

Thanks for the link - the scoops look similar, but the top ones seem a little smaller... Maybe I was looking in the wrong place.

Anyway, there certainly seems to be two groups - those who like the scoops (even if they are not functional) and those who dislike them (for a variety of reasons).

I sort of like them, but I have not seen any in person, so I may change my mind when I see a car with them.

But I am really waiting for the Shaker hood scoop. I should probably see one in person first before I shell out the money and cut a nice hole in the hood...

Do you honestly travel fast enough for that "drag" to matter? Seriously? Because if you do you probably need a racing wing.
