Cyba Scoops Fitted!

parapaul · 05-08-2013, 02:47 PM

Now, I have absolutely no preconception that these are going to make any difference at all, but I liked the look of them and they were a bargain

Sparky68 · 05-08-2013, 02:55 PM

I have been looking at these but, talking myself out of it. Stop posting pictures of them up!!!

Look nice mate.

Danny.B. · 05-08-2013, 03:04 PM

look great don't they! look better on your car compared to my blue car!

gatto667 · 05-08-2013, 03:23 PM

Hmm 2 questions

1. What do they do
2. Where can I get some

1. Not much, except at race track speeds.

2. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ht=Cyba+scoops

AWBimmer · 05-08-2013, 04:39 PM

Paul, I also have these and definitely adds a nice touch, albeit aesthetic only! Looks good

Josh1a1h · 05-08-2013, 04:54 PM

Hmmm was never too sure about these red scoops... Any pics from further back?

DanTheManc · 05-08-2013, 07:55 PM

Looks like a toaster

mistryn · 05-09-2013, 01:30 AM

Ive not been too sure on these like above any pics from a distance?

But main thing you like them

gaza01 · 05-09-2013, 09:01 AM

I've always liked this but thought it was painting of that part rather than a addition. From far it does look good...especially on darker cars!

skelts · 05-09-2013, 09:34 AM

I like OP

Waiting for mine to arrive, for £30 if you don't like them fitted you can remove them its not the end of the world.

ROW · 05-09-2013, 10:24 AM

Looks good, I have these fitted to mine. Only issue i have now is that there is a lot more wind noise through the vents on the motorway.

makkan00 · 05-28-2013, 10:47 AM

Guys,
Does this increase the dust / moisture going to the air filter?
Considering the weather in GB, will this increase the chances of moisture going into air filter?
Any other disadvantaged other than what ROW mentioned?

Thanks.

Phil325i · 05-28-2013, 02:05 PM

In my experience dust yes, moisture no. The Cyba scoops have cut-outs to deflect water away from the airstream. Followed a gritter on the M25 this winter and found salt crystals in the bottom of the airbox!

Collanrf · 05-28-2013, 02:08 PM

I have one too, Looks good.

I know its cheap mod, but does it do any good except gains on illegal speed.

In my personal opinion - no.

FWIW I agree - these are really just a cosmetic mod IMO. I do a lot of motorway miles though, and I don't agree with the poster above who said they got wind noise.

1sh@Crystalwhite · 05-29-2013, 01:29 PM

Looks great mate!
