Default Headlight Scoops?

I saw one of these for a classic on one of the trade stands at JAE a couple of years ago, but can't seem to find anywhere that does them.
RHS only, hopefully for more cool air to the induction kit.

Anyone?

Looks good.

Is the hole at the rear reinforced with plast tube or similar to strengthen it for air ducting to be clamped on? or where you just going to have it open?

As long as your blank/mold is smooth should be ok, and no recesses, then its a case of fitting brackets etc.

Storm do them for 60+10 postage but they dont go into a small diameter like yours so it would be harder to sttach hosing on theirs.
