That'll block the intercooler

Check out this pic that my roommate sent me this morning of a Co-worker's WRX in the parking lot. He works in Santa Clara.

Yep, that's a swarm of BEES taking up residence in the hood scoop!

My best guess is they did this cause it's warm in there?

that's nuts... he should rev, and let the bov go off... they'd scatter.

that's just crazy!

lol

Dude, that blows. I've heard that's its a total BlTCH to get rid of a hive once the bees have decided to make their home there. Oh and you better hope to hell that those are afracanized honeybees, they'll follow you home from work to hunt you down and make sure you don't **** with their queen again.

Hopefully they don't decide to make their home in your A/C ducting. Now that would suck. Imagine cranking it on a hot day just to het a stream of very pissed off bees shooting at your face.

From the looks of the other pics he sent me (too many to post....no video though ), they called in a beekeeper who took care of the problem.

Holy Carp! I was wondering how that ended up when I saw the first pic this morning :0

This makes a good case for that mesh-in-scoop mod.
