Why would you want to do that, looks aweful.

Ive done a manta 400 replica bonnet before for a mate at the bodyshop i worked at, but all that was was smoothing in a fibreglass piece onto normal bonnet.

Looks easy enough to make though. If your posh making a steel sheet insert shouldnt be difficult
