For looks only from what I understand. I haven't heard of someone making it functional.

Yep...had it on since March of 2006. Non-functional but could be further modified to plumb air somewhere. Did not opt for the sticky tape install so I don't know how that would hold up. What I did...which is a bit dramatic...is traced the mounting lip outline on top of the car, routed out a small channel that corresponded to the lip/flange on the roof scoop, used the recommended 2-part panel bond goo (can't remember the brand) and permanently bonded the scoop to the top. Filled, sanded, beveled, etc the bond/seam and wala...ready for new yellow, stripe, and clear. WOuld I do it again...probably. Turned out really nice IMO. You can view some pics in my gallery. I saw a blue one a few years ago that bonded/feathered it into the roof as well. That's where I go the idea.
why would anyone want a fake scoop that would just slow them down with added wind resistance
does it atleast have a hole in the back to let air pass thru?
Something similar to this is people that put a front licenceplate on a car in a state where front plates arnt required

This is the roof scoop on my car. The scoop is not open in front. I put some black pc mesh in front of where functional opening would be. I had the paint shop fill in the seems around the NACA ducts when they blended the roof scoop in

Now, if the scoop on the roof of the Coupe fed something like the scoop on the bottom of that bird feeds; that would be the start of a great mod!

Tree's was the one I saw. I took his pics into a body shop with my roof vent and discussed the install, stripes, facia, sidesill repaint, etc and they wanted $9.5K...yea right so I did it myself.
