Any body got any pics of modified bonnets for a HQ? I am going to need about 4 inches of extra height to clear my intake and i was thinking of doing something like they have done in this thread.

I could go with a reverse cowl in glass but to be legal in QLD if your filter is above the original bonnet line the scoop has to be steel.
I dont want to weld in a ford section but more looking for ideas and inspiration on something similar that would suit a HQ.
I like the way that modified ford bonnet curves up from the front. He has obviously taken inspiration from Adam Lebreses coupe. but i like it.
You can buy steel reverse cowles in the U.S. but it would be rs by the time it got here.

Let me know what you think.

All the stuff i have bought, the boxes look like they have been thrown off every truck and plane between there and here. I would hate to think what a big panel like that would look like on arrival, unless it was very well padded and supported.
