A bloke put an SLR one on his about 2 years ago but I don't know his name. Someone might know and could search his threads. He has since moved on so the the member himself won't be any help. I reckon the pics were in the XJ forum, what did you do to your XJ today?

Regards A

Ok bit more info. His name on AJOR was dozer. His last post was 29/9/11 he was only on here for a few weeks. I will let you search the rest to find his picks of his bonnet scoop. BTW his was the only one I have ever seen with a Torana scoop fited.

I am thinking of getting one, one day but I am looking at wide Colorado or Patrol scoop and turning it around to face backwards. The issue I have with the Torana ones are they may sit a little too high. Although technically not legal to face them backwards I see little point in drawing in extra air at highways speeds by facing them forwards because an XJ should not normally over heat at those speeds.
