scoop or no scoop?

i'm trying to decide whether or not to add a scoop to my '81 GSL (for looks, and cooling) but i don't want my car to look too busy, i'd like to blend it in so it appears stock. Any suggestions. Some pictures for ideas would help. thanks

I was planning on doing the same in the future for turbo purposes. I never found a pic of an actual first gen with a turbo on it but I can provide links to places that have turbo's for first gens.

This link is to a fiberglass hood with scoop and a cut out aswell

This link is for just a turbo scoop no hood (in case you're a do it yourselfer)

I don't at all think it should look busy seeing as how it looks great on the hood in the first link. I say do it and keep us posted on how it turns out.
