    Default Bonnet Scoop onto VP???

    ok, plans in the making

    will a Walkinshaw bonnet scoop fit straight on to the VP bonnet?

    if not, is it easy for a panel beater/similar to adapt it?

    again if not, can anyone suggest a good shop in melb to fit it?

    probably a n00b question but better to be sure

    thanks guys

    It wouldnt fit straight on, but just fibreglassing it onto the bonnet would be easy I would think...

    Give a fibreglass shop a call and get a fitting quote..

    if you have a spare bonnet give it a go yourself, justr go buy a fiber glass kit, measure it to centre, fibre glass then hit it with some sandpaper and shape to ones liking
