Exclamation Getting crap stuck in your hoodscoop?

Stupid plastic bag whipping around on the road this morning on 101 S in SSF. I saw it swirling and heading toward me and was thinking "I know where that's going"

Sure enough, it went RIGHT into my hoodscoop...so I had to drive the rest of the way to work with this thing sticking out and flailing around and everyone looking at me. I woulda pulled over and taken it out if I wasn't in the far left land and already late for work.

moral of the story...don't hit the snooze button 10 times!

this ever happen to you?

ive had an entire newspaper fly into the scoop on the san mateo bridge, a piece of paper ripped into tiny bits thrown out of a school bus thanks to those darling kids, pastic bags, and cigarette butts.

The heat around it might be enough to melt parts of it, if you are letting it sit, but going 30 MPH + it doesn't give the bag a chance to get hot enough

I have caught
-A toaster stroodle
-A few cigarette butts
-A lot of bugs

Besides that no need for a screen, I actually wanna get the STi hood scoop and catch more . . . air that is

Once I had a plastic bag get stuck on my spoiler while going about 45mph. I drove with it on there for a bit then sped up and it flew off.
