Just kidding of course, and I don't know where to buy a roof-scoop, but then again, I've got no fuggin' clue what someone would use a roof-scoop for (other than to make the car all fast-and-furious like).

How about you just don't do that to your poor 4th gen.
Actually, now that I think about it, maybe you should just sell it and get a ford probe and rice that out instead.

I too had thought of this at one time. I was thinking of putting one over my sunroof. That way when I open my sunroof it will be functional in that it would blow air in. I dunno...the only problem I had is when it was closed it would create some drag. Anyways...heres the one I thought about

The money u'd spend for a scoop (not an ice cream scoop) would be better spent on performance, or sound. $200 bux for that carbon fiber nastyness would be better spent on an intake, headers, keyless entry, some subs, headunit, amp, etc. If you're adding a scoop just so ppl will notice you, add a cardboard one with ducktape. It works just as well and has the same effect...
What i'm trying to say is:
Don't waste your money on scoops.
But if you buy ice cream scoops thats ok because the fat that piles up on ur handles will last longer than the paint on your car! And it's very functional!! Body heat and energy storage yeaaa babeh! Car scoops cant store energy...or can they? Only if they had air turbines in them...
I wish they made solar panel body kits, and body panels.

I can't believe you're even thinking of installing one :(
It's a hell of a way to ruin the look of the car. Spend the money on something else please :)

hood/roof scoop...
imo it is ugly and non functional... you dont need it so why do you want it on your car? to make it look fast? keep it looking like ass till you get some HP to go with the look. (and to make up for the mad drag that thing will make).
like i said imo... so dont get offended by this
its a waste of good money that can help your car go faster.

hmmm a tip.... i bet u got 5 hp huh. I got 1 hp earlier when i washed and waxed my car. and whats wrong with ford probes huh? i used to have one and let me tell you theyre pieces of shit (well mine was after the tranny died 3k miles after i got it). LOL its all in good fun, but theyre fun cars to drive. But seriously dont do a roof scoop theyre stupid unless they serve a purpose and in this case they dont. Dont support Uncle Ben! Hes a communist!

a roof scoop stupid? do it
some have outlets in the back (like my friends civic had) that helps with down force...but like i said, was was gonna cut a hole in the roof and seal the scoop in over it...but that was my plan

YOu really should just get it, cause you want somoen to agree with you. I agree you should waste your cash and make your honda even more retarded. YOu could use the money to one-up your primer idea by painting your damned car! BUt I support your roof scoop or whatever you want.
