I'm having flashbacks to living near Lexington Park.

You took this farther than I would, but I do like the protection against dings/scratches you'll have.
Not sure how long it's been since you've been in Lexington Park but it's looking like Waldorf now.

I left in 2000 after a string of shootings in my neighborhood. I was living in an apartment building near the current George Washington Carver school, which I don’t recall as being there.

Reviving this old post since many more scoops have come out and I think some are worth a look

This is not my truck, but I like the looks of it...

Apparently they make these in different colors as well

I like it, kind of a throw back to the old shaker hoods on Mustangs.

I'd have to see one up close though. Fit and finish make or break the look.

I find all of these non functional 'hood scoops" that stick on your vehicle to be straight up garbage.

I'm not against purely cosmetic alterations. But these just look like somebody is trying way too hard.

No kidding. The one from a couple of posts back actually looks pretty good - but its a giant sticker.

F that.

There are a lot of different things we put on our Rangers that really don’t serve much purpose other than we think they look good. I don’t want one, but I think some of these hood scoops look good...especially that one above on the Saber Ranger. :like:

I am not really a "fake hood-scoop" guy, but I have to admit, this one looks pretty cool!

I agree, one of the less obnoxious stick hood scoops. Too bad it's not designed for our US hoods.
