Hey everybody. So my 03 R53 and I fought a deer and the deer did some damage. I am in the process of replacing the hood, and I also need a new hood scoop insert. My question is, are there any aftermarket hood scoops out there that rather than being depressed into the contour of the hood, actually protrude out to capture more air? I know about the M7 Vortex, and that is pretty much exactly what I am looking for. Just wondering if there is one out there that is maybe plastic or something so it isn't $299. Ill drop a picture below of what I am looking for. Thanks in advance!



*yes I know, R56 not R53, but same scoop.

 

A new R53 scoop just came out, or is about to come out by Leap. Don't know much about them as they're a fairly new company, but people seem happy with their rear wing extensions.

You might be able to find a used M7 Vortex scoop in the marketplace. You can post a WTB HERE. I've seen more than a few pop up recently.
