The hood scoop is a bolt on type and has an inner lip, so i have to be careful how much i take off the bottom or i will remove the mounting flange. I may just remove the center most point and blend the rest in the best i can. That shouldn't be too hard to do. Its not hard to cut as i have removed about 4" from the rear already. I will cut the hole tomorrow and see what i can do with that point on the front. Thanks
