Took me quite a bit of effort, but I managed to replicate a FRP version of the Sport Scoops. Got it moulded from an original piece.
The only that's not right is the paintjob. I don't have the codes so I took it to a local paintshop that just couldn't get it quite right. I'm thinking of getting it repainted soon.
Take note that the work just doesn't involve the scoops alone though.
I also had to go to the trouble of finding bolts and nuts to mount it on. The original sport scoops come with some silicone washers, and 4 special spacer nuts, 'cos the things ain't flush against the radiator. That, and the removable plastic rivets that mount it to the frame. In the end, I chose to tap the frame with a helicoil and screwed the scoops in.
Silicone washers
And the spacer bolts
