    Not a big fan

    of scoops usually but I do like this one. I agree the grill insert doesnt look that great

    How did you finish out the back side?

    Is it just closed off and flat?

    Old style cowl induction opening in the back might be cool.

    Thanks and looks great!

    I normally do not like hood scoops on the VX but this is the best hood scoop I have seen on a VX. But yeah that grille insert is um, well totally out of place in my opinion. I tried many different grill options, until coming to the conclusion that the stock VX grille is really perfect for the car :-) Nice hood scoop though, great professional looking job!

    Agree. I have yet to see a grill insert that looks good. The stock grill is perfecto. Don't mess with it I say. I'm not a fan of hood scoops either, but this one is not too bad. I just feel that the VX does not need anything added. It is already one of the most unique vehicles of ALL TIME.
