Ill be making the intake scoops for him. Plan on using some 1/8" aluminum sheet and making the bends with either a brake or vice, going off the design of the TTM scoops. We'll take pics of the fab work and post them up. If they come out good and someone wants a set, i might consider making a few and selling them for a few bucks. Won't be starting to make them for a few weeks, only time to work on his ride is the weekends...gotta love college. I made the intake for him as well, plan on using this http://www.jegs.com/i/Taylor/895/2590/10002/-1?CT=999 to wrap the tubes and possibly put two 45 degree bends at the end of the tubes to get the filters down more to take advantage of the scoops once they're made.
Always good to have a buddy with a nice ride to mod, he pays for materials and spectates while i do the fab and install. Get to drive it once in awhile, maybe a little more often this summer after all the work thats been done.... Whattcha say pal?!?!

Go big or go home. I would suggest curving the faces of your scoops.

I would use a slip roller if i had access to one, but im just going to make a series of small angle bends to create a semi-hexagonal type shape to give it some curvature. should work just as well
