I've seen plenty with NACAs, never seen one with a scoop. This will keep the one off feel I've been ending up going for. If it doesn't work it will be easy to do NACA, this is a experiment all the way. Thanks for the suggestions though, alway appreciated.

My rally car has what we call "dumbo's ears" for cooling off driver/co-driver in hot weather and on track days.
Below 45km/h you don't feel any airflow through them, 45-70kph shows some light flow and above 80kph they're fairly effective. Some tests with NACA ducts on the actual window show much better flow, but for packaging reasons I have to do the scoops so we can open and close the rear doors.
