Looking for a set of these by FVD if anyone has a set laying around.

I have the FVD/Cult Werk ducts. Made in Austria. Worlds nicer than the Better Bodies Sag-O-Matics I had years ago.

These^^^are a very nice ABS product, with Hella plug n play LEDs, at an unmatchable price point!

Sand, wipe, prime, sand, wipe; 3 coats color, colorsand, wipe; 2 coats clear.

I used, touch up direct, paint and clear, with excellent results in paint match.

I will be installing this weekend with photos to follow.

EDIT - Ducts installed

First pic, painted ducts with leds installed

Second, One duct installed

Third, Both ducts installed

I used alum screening over the air ducts...I may do them black, but so far they are alum silver in accent to the MY02 wheels.

Thanks to Foxman for his post and tips!

Not to be a Debbie downer, I love the look of those lights....but an HID upgrade in clear/new stock fog housings....is just too much valuable driving light to discard.

The HID's in the fog lights sounds great. I think I read one of your prior posts on this Magdaddy, 35w 4500? It's true that the LED's in the Turbo S Scoops are merely position lamps, but I think it's possible to run some H4 bulbs which should provide some meaningful light. I'm experimenting with a set of lamps that I sourced and will report back soon.





Not sure they even make these turbo scoops anymore





New H4 lamps
