Yes. I think that is on the 2nd Gen Camaro that initiated this thread.

The one on the #1 ZL1 is clear.

But yes that is the style I want to build.

The first scoop I put the center part in between the sides . The 2nd scoop I put the center part on top of the sides. It held up a little better. It still broke ,but the glue held and the glass broke. The pressure broke it. I think what caused it to break is my scoop is open in the front by 2" ,air got in there and cracked it. I think if the front is sealed it wont hurt it. Who knows?? My scoop is 3 parts, the center is clear and the sides are smoked red.

Kim, I'd like to make a similar scoop for Benjamin's car, what did the final version look like?

What would you do differently, would / could you make the top and sides out of one piece and only have to glue the portion where the top angles down the front?

I'm thinking of a one piece unit in green....

Marlin, I made three scoops, not one of them held up.

What I did different, I had one made. In the long run they were cheap compared the time and money I had in the three I made. Let me find their phone # .
John Diekema found this place I think in Davenport , Ia.
John drove the ZL-1 at a couple of the reunions. Let me get their # from John and get back to you .

Ken,
Lets see................ the chrome blew off one pass.
The scoop broke three different times that weekend.

The second pass she ran a 9:80

I remember telling you if I died that night,
I would die a very happy man.
Watching my car dip in the 9's the first time out
made me a happy man
