Stock NSXs do not have hood scoops. In this application, it increases downforce by diverting air from under the front bumper over the roof.

Nope.

NSX's have hood scoops for the same reason any other car has hood scoops: cooling. The radiator in an NSX is in the front. In fact, the new stock NSX-Rs have hood scoops.

man, that veilside nsx is sweet!!!

the first one though... blah. it looks like they took a car that is beautiful stock, threw some ugly ass color shifting paint on it (brownish orange???), and that park bench on the back.... um that is ugly as hell. those are for the civics guys, not the beautiful nsx's. just my opinion though, if you all like it more power to ya.
