I am posting this for Derik Green.  He is in Canada and makes these things on the side.  If you might be interested, please contact him directly.

Those look pretty cool, I just emailed him about them. Anyone know of any pictures with them installed?

Okay, I can't post a pic but I'll put it on the page I linked to.

Claude, I did not ask, but I would assume that's for a pair.

Has anyone ever tested these to see if they are an improvement or just for looks. I like them but aren't those vents designed for heat to escape not let air in. If using wouldn't you require some venting through the center of the deck lid or something to help cool engine bay. If they are ok then how much in Canadian funds not that funny yankee stuff.

Here is an image for you, this is on a car!! hehe.
I sound like a dumb ass.
Feel like one too  Cheesy

But, Theres the pics!

Or the one thats on his site



And to answer FieroFlyers question.  I think they would be an improvement because if you think about it, the air will be forced in to them (which is cool air) and will force the air over the engine and out the bottom, more of less like a ram air affect

 Tongue  I hate to be a wet blanket; but I think that both configurations of the scoops are neither attractive nor
efficiently-designed to smoothly duct air down into the compartment.  Couple that with the idea
that they would be forcing air in opposite to the designed flow path & I'd say its "style" over substance.
Remember that the air under the car is pressurized, and that's why GM used the top vents as exits.
