Check out KYLiberty's KJ,he hangs around the 4x2 section,there are many pics of his fiberglass hood with a scoop in it.Also Jeepin by Al has a mustang scoop(I believe) on his KJ.

Profinish-Proglass is the company that did his scoop (and the two door, convertable for SEMA a few years ago).

I emailed Profinish once before, they wanted 525 for one of their hoods (fully functional ram air), primed, no paint.

Yeah email JeepinAl for details but I think it was a 95 Mustang GT hood scoop (could be wrong on the year).

Most scoops these days are just stick on... I'd assume that the Mustang scoop is only an appearance item (as they are on almost all Mustangs)

The pro-glass one is functional but i've never seen it up close.

As far as I know Al's blue KJ and KYLiberty's silver KJ are the only 2 that I know of with scoops.Can check cardomain and search through the hundreds of KJ's on there.

Here's a picture of mine

Here's the original SEMA vehicle with a Liberty with a hood scoop. Mine is the 2nd hood made from this mold.

KY Liberty's Profinish-Proglass hood looks awesome. I'd have a Renegade hood built if I weren't getting a snorkel. Would a snorkel increase or decrease air flow?

Snorkels actually decrease flow,alot more bends to travel through.But they do get cleaner,cooler air coming in(by getting the intake opening up over the dust line in convoys on dirt roads).
