Customised VN Bonnets

[1991_Vn2nV]

Ok, well I'm looking at doing something different with my VN bonnet cause it looks plain to me.

So I was thinking of a Monaro style bonnet...As Group A bulges have been done to death...

Does anyone have any pictures of a VN with a monaro bonnet or has anyone seen one before?

Also does anyone have any other suggestions?

I just put a poll up, so please vote for what you think! Also here is a pic of the bonnet bulge with the opening thats in the poll (thanks to Nutkase for the pic...hope you dont mind!):

I reckon the monaro style bonnet would looks heaps good

[1991_Vn2nV]

Cheers for the feedback

[flyen]

i got a Group A one being put on my vn soon

but a monaro one would look awesome

[fu2]

i dont ming the group a with the opening on it. looks totally different

[1991_Vn2nV]

i dont ming the group a with the opening on it. looks totally different

Yeah thats the advantage of the group a with the opening i reckon, its very rare. Theres alot of cars with the monaro bonnet now, although i have yet to see one on a VN but its only a matter of time. But the monaro bonnets do look very sweet..

[YMY-88U]

yeh, i agree that the monaro bonnets look sweet as, but i dont think they will look any good on a vn, i have seen on ebay some people selling vn bonnets with the xr8 buldge, i havent seen that before

[Doctor Sodways]

Damn it, i meant to vote other, but i voted leave it plain. I reckon a BA falcon bulge could lookk fairly good on the VN, im not a fan of bulges and stuff tacked onto the top, but a BA bulge could looks fairly tidy

[1991_Vn2nV]

I agree the BA bulge would look nice, but I dont wanna blur the line between Holden and Ford. I'd rather just blur the line between Holden models

[corvette_tpi]

The VN group A with the opening is the go. It would have to help quite a bit with airflow and it keeps it looking original (i don't know how much i like the late model body parts on the early modeal cars).

[PaRaDoX]

group A with opening looks cool, but u should just modify a group A one your self, thats what'd id do, re mould it

[anton1o]

Opening looks awesome, Buldge is done to death!

[HoZy]

Up to you man, I'd go monaro for a vn, Rare as hell on vn's an it'd match your kit & flutes.

Well I guess its now a matter of finding someone to do a Monaro bonnet for a VN!

Anyone know a place in Adelaide that might be able to do it?

[HoZy]

Cheers

[1991_Vn2nV]

Hmm whats that guys number Hozy? Depending on how the finals go for the crows i'll be in Melbourne for the Grand Final... So if the price is right or I cant find anyone in Adelaide I could get it while im over there...

[HoZy]

The guy in melb, If you supply your bonnet or a bonnet, he'll fit it for $400 i think it was. Will look for a number

Cheers

CV8 Z Monaro Style paint the air vents blue like ur bumper would look tuff... tho i voted for Group A no vent as the VN SS Group A is my favourite car and FLYEN is going 2 make his nice as i am sure.

[1991_Vn2nV]

Cheers subdue, and thanks for the pics in the email!

I like the idea of the CV8Z style bonnet as well with he blue vents! Cheers man

[1991_Vn2nV]

Yeah I do like the look, but I dont really wanna blur the lines between ford and holden, just stick to the different Holden model stuff...
