Tuscan V6/Vixen bonnet replacement.

[RFC1]

As some of you will remember, my Tuscan V6 has had a "modded" bonnet for many years as pictured.



Now i have to admit that it is of course part of the cars history but not really to my tastes.
I would much prefer it to be a standard vixen/tuscan style bonnet.

Question is, what do or indeed can do about it? Can a correct bonnet be bought ? Any help or input most welcome.

Find yourself a high'ish curb and carefully drive up to it. When you feel it touch, drive forward about 8" and you should find the valance will flip back to the original angle.

Seriously though, there is a motorsport company over Notts way I think who IIRC have a bonnet mould. I'm sure someone will be along shortly with a link. They race an orange M/Taimar with one of their Tuscan / Vixen bonnets. Looks quite nice.

I believe here is the correct/same bonnet?
or at least I guess, its from a Vixen 2500

you get the rest of the car for other spare parts

Easier/cheaper to put that bonnet back to standard if the bib spoiler is the only "issue"

You are probably right mate. Maybe look in to it next winter.

I do have some spare bonnets here in the Netherlands. All with damages and work.
