Default I need a reverse Scoop, help !

Bugeye STI reverse scoop required please.

I notice that ABW do/did them, but there webpage no longer lists them, so I guess they no longer sell to public, so where can I get one from?

Ive seen the ebay jobbies, but they dont take my breath away.

Rob

I've recently bought one of the RCM carbon fibre reverse vents and the quality is brilliant, not cheap but well worth it as far as I'm concerned.

I have seen the RCM one and I think the one EMB makes is better as it sits flat in the bonnet.

Just looked at the RCM one, £270

I suppose you pay for what you get, but that is likely to be out of my league.

I might take my scoop off this weekend and draw the underside pattern and make my own mould for the reverse scoop, how hard can it be

I've seen that one buddy, but the Blob's and Bug's appear not to be compatible, or at least thats what HT autos have sent on a thread on here, they were/have made up large reverrse scoop, but I would like the mesh type on that Cannon has for sale. I may just buy Cannon's and mod the bonnet to suit
