    If you grabb attention on the way the VX's in those pics looks you can figured out that "ANY" one really got any "RICER" mods,all of those VX's are mostly modified inside then outside,suspension & engines are improved for true rally,yes still you don't see any one with "SCOOPS" "AIR DAMS" o big holes on them.

    I can bid you 100's of dollars that those mod VX's will dust your windshield without scoops just because they all focus on endurance & dependability.
    Dakar was just the begining.

    bro you focus and focus and focus on 1 thing and 1 thing only, the "scoop", if you read the whole thing throughly, you will read that i said i don't have the cash to throw away in 1 big mondo size project, yes i know those would smoke me, and thats awsome, i give them props, but like i said before, i started with the outside first, then i'm working on the inside and then go deeper to the mechanical side. my pocket only goes so deep ya know, plus like i said the scoop is not for performance to the engine, you understand that right? sorry i didn't put a long black pvc pipe on my side of the fender and up to the side, i just don't like that way it looks on the VX, personally. Again, the engine, are not that many mods you can do other then a s/c that those vx dont have anyways, and tranny, diffrent gears and so on will come later. if you read the thread about the yellow/green rally VX, it didn't really have that much done to it, just really diffrent shocks and extra gas tank. if you look at my gallery and see the process, you will see that i have gone a long way, just money is an issue here, but with due time it will come all together. so whats your openion, now that i truely ask. Do you think my VX is "RICER"? Cuz i don't think it is in my own eyes and what i think a real "RICER" is.

    P.S. Sorry about the Columbia comment, i always get the Columbian flag mixed with yours, my bad.

    so, changing a vehicle because you like the way it looks is ricer now?? because im pretty sure most VX owners bought it because of the way it looked

    Hood scoops and spoilers that come on Subarus are performance inspired, beneficial additions. Although they might not be totally necessary to most of the everyday owners, neither are a lot of the features that come in a lot of vehicles.

    oh, im very aware of the purpose of the spoiler and the hood scoop on the subaru, im very very interested by the subaru, i love them and think they are great vehicles. i just dont understand why the owners seem to think they are above everyone else...

    I fall into the class of folks who tend to stay in the "sleeper" class.

    i agree, sleeper is the way to go when your dealing anything that people view as ricer, otherwise your just asking for trouble...but thats a style decision, not a poor choice in vehicle

    I will defend the scoop at least by saying it is fully functional, heh. Until they come with front mounts, those scoops will remain.
    ya, i understand the meaning behind the hood scoop...but i just find it ironic that they razz everyone else on the road for having a scoop
    its nothing personal wormgod...
    if you have payed attention, i love the subaru vehicles...i just dont understand the high and mighty mindset...
