    Not too bad but if he is that good, he should have done done a bit more of a custom job. It is after all a Ford hood, the ultimate betrayal.

    If it wasnt 4 the sharp edges on the body kit it wouldnt suit but since it does it blends in ok. Needs the clubby rear bar or skirt by the looks of it tho

    Looks damn sweet if you ask me. Yet, I would say that about all Aussie cars. I like how it's like binding the two aussie cars together to reach a mutual agreement.

    i reckon if it had some different rims on it, it would look a lot better. it's not bad i reckon, i wouldn't buy it or do it myself but it still looks alright.

    Have you got any more info on it though? 8 or 6? etc.

    umzz guys, these bonnets are for sale with these scoops on ebay. the scoops are $110. they dont look to bad in my opinion, but a monaro bonnet does look much better, or a s-charged letterbox bonnet
