im not a big fan of a hood scoop on the cobalts. they way i think of having a hood scoop is either
A. your subaru wrx/sti...
B. your a SRT-4
or
C. you like to be made fun of

and yes it has been done before...research

Metallic, the rear vents will still remove some heat from that Heaton (assuming they're functional which i believe they are).

it depends on the intake you have. could modify it or get a short ram and it would be functional

all ss/sc intakes go into the bumper. and if you modified it to have a short ram you would get a hella load of heat from the eaton and loose power.
