At least the center duct is likely functional on that car.

Agreed, it doesn't look right on that car. I wish, though, somebody made a Scoot hood without that semi-pointless (for most set-ups) Viper center duct. The finned part looks great.

Or you could make that duct functional by using it as a ram air set-up. A lot of the fd's scoot hoods don't even have the underside duct work.

It doesn't really line up with anything, so unless it's an N/A setup, seems like a lot of work. It would be less work just to have your body shop patch the thing over.

Seems like alot of work to convert from the twins to a single however that's not stoping most people here on the forum from doing it. The amount of work is minimal if you plan it out. All mods take time, will, effort, and most importantly money.
