Smile bonnet bulge

Hi just come back from stoneleigh today
Seen a black haynes roadster on the total kit stand and it had a extended bonnet bulge, went pretty much all the way to the back. That would be perfect for my set up as iv'e got my engine mounted right at the back.

Just wondering if anybody knows where i can get a different bulge or a complete bonnet.

Thanks David, I do like the look of that and I think it would look even better with stripes like yours but in silver, I saw it today on a mustang and thought it would suit the roadster

The structure in the background is what replaced the famous Fylingdales "golf balls" ( ballistic missile early warning system in the North York Moors).
