I've got some hood vents from a Lumina Z34. They would work pretty well. PM me if you are interested. They are black, I have the water catches for the bottom of them.

I will post a pic of the z34 scoops soon. They are neat, they have a drip tray on the bottom of them that you can plumb out to the fender lips to drain the water. The liners can have thumb nuts put on them for quick drop out.
