Well driving to work today - and my scoop flew out of the bonnet into the middle of the road and was run over by another car. so now need to get myself a new scoop.

so thinking of taking this oppurtunity to change the scoop.

so was just wondering what options areavailable. do like the ram 2 scoop.

any one got any different scoops on there cars, and could show me a picture.

thanks

Weird, don't think I've ever heard of that happening before! :eek:

Only other option I can think of off the top of my head is the M7 Vortex scoop? Vortex for the first gen, and Vortex 2 for second gen...

Maybe a bit "over the top" - works better colour coded on darker colour cars I'd say. :)

yeah have to admit was a bit surprised to see it fly up over the top of my car.

Spoke to mini amd it gonna be £75+vat for a new standard one, so was thinking for that would be worth hanging, not even many on ebay though.

Weird! One week later and mine just did the same thing!?

Anyone know of UK stockists of the ram or M7 scoops...?

My scoop cover blew off while on the motorway as well last week! I was wondering if you both had any luck in finding new scoop covers? I'm ideally after a pepper white scoop cover or a black one if I don't get a hold of the pepper white one! If anyone knows any good sites or anyone selling one please let me know!
