Original or new? You could try Paintbox in the UK, or how about the Otto Bros - didn't they make one for Dangerine? Huh

If you've got a decent metal one, you could make your own? A guy I knew made his own fibreglass 1302 bonnet because he couldn't buy one, and his friend made a whole fibreglass Fastback shell! If you can make the mould you can make the panels!
Or failing that, cut up the flip front from the original TikiMadness? I know it'll have no return lips, but it'll be light!

didn't think off cutting off the front of the old car Wink

Just spoke to Shane from the paintbox and allthough he couldn't help me it was a usefull phone call(learned a lot )

I'll keep looking for awhile before I decide to make something myself.

At the monster garage episode of the Sauer Kraut gasser they also used a fiberglass bonnet. I thought it had an Empi logo on it.
