Front IC Scoop

[Daron]

While I use one of Jim Brown's scoops, if I were to do it again I would do this:

After bending my CCHE mount in New Jersey, I can appreaciate having a somewhat flexible plastic scoop. I saw a number of these on trucks at the 2000 nats and must say, when done right, they look rather good. I have seen the blade o death and it is way worth the cash, as I am sure Bob B's is. But for a few bucks I would try my hand at it first.
Good luck,

Rick, where did you get the ABS? I haven't had much luck finding those Sterilite containers around here, and figured making a scoop out of plastic would probably work better than trying to make a bucket fit like a scoop. I feel the same way as Daron about this. I'd much rather rip off a $10 piece of plastic, even several times, then have a solid scoop mess up the rest of my truck. Also, I think the plastic scoops blend in with the cladding well too.

Hey Daron, thanks for the complement. I would try the $10 scoop before investing the money also

I don't know if you have TAP plastics where you are, but that's where I bought mine.
Check out "Plastics" in your yellow pages.

I also used a small metal tab that mounts to the center stud on the bottom of the CCHE.
It is about 1/4" wide & 1" long. It keeps the middle of the scoop from bowing down and high speed.

I am pretty sure I bought an IC scoop from you.

I've seen one of Morgan's Scoops. Nice product.

Excuse the bugs on the bumper...I drove 2 hours to that meet, and didn't have a chance to wipe it off before that meet

Had both of them powdercoated silver, and had a shrunken original Syclone decal made from Graphiks Concepts and put it on the blade. Looks really mean IMO.

NWSTP scoop is secure too, it uses 4 exsisting bolt holes, that the old scoop uses.

Dgoodhue, you did buy one of them I had made.....you know it is made and pretty heavy duty.
