Nice mate

yep - lose the scoop mesh. It's also restricting the airflow to your intercooler (same as those intercooler guards!!)
Rest looks sweet though

Would like to see a pic of that scoop without the mesh as my Chargespeed one is the same and I'm not sure about it either - alternatively might paint it black but if it really does restrict the airflow like people are saying then it will definately need to go !
