I know this is an old post, and I have done my best to read through every reply here but I think a small bonnet scoop on a non-turbo car is really no issue.
It's a small change to the stock bonnet but gives the whole car a completely different look. I've been aching over colours for my car (to be ordered tomorrow) but have noticed that I've been basing it on the colour of a Spec.B at my local dealer - only to realise the car gets its look from that scoop alone.
I don't think you can compare it to people with fluro's, massive wings and ridiculous body kits. It's no where near the same league of "tosserness" lol.
It's a small but effective change and personally if I can find a replacement bonnet i'll be doing it myself!
