It's not yet finished as I am using this one to make a mould and reproduce these in fibreglass.These bonnets will fit any BA/BF XR6/XR8/GT . Any feedback welcome. Edited 20/07/09 12:39 AM by envyxr

I know that the Expensive Daewoo people will think that this is a copy to replicate the monaro bonnet, but this was produced from a 1974 XB GT so they copied Ford originally anyway with the flutes.

Posted 20/07/09 01:15 AM Posted 20/07/09 01:15 AM it looks really good.just from a functional point of view, you don't want to be ramming more air under the bonnet...swing the vent 180deg and move em abit further back and I'd buy one
