I have a 4" Cowl Induction scoop and I ordered a stock flat fiberglass hood from Unlimited Products.

Now, what's done is done so, please refain from the "I told you so's"

What I want to know is, If I "rough up" the underside of my scoop's mounting surface and "rough up" the matching area on the hood......Then, apply a layer of resin and set the scoop on the hood and allow it to set, Will this bond the scoop to the hood sufficiently?

Then I will lay matting to blend the outside to the hood.

I'm not building a "Show" quality car here only a "Street/Strip Terror" Thanks, Jim

Yes it will bond it.You may want to consider a product called Vette panel adhesive made by Evercoat.Use that to glue the scoop on and then use chopped up cloth and resin to smooth the seams.
