You would be better putting a VL Walkinshaw bonnet scoop on. That is not easy on my eyes.

I use these car's as an example: (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/DUZ10S800.jpg.html) (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/Hijakt1.jpg.html) (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/New16.jpg.html) However if you are after a bonnet scoop, here are some as an example. I remember seeing an XR8 one a while ago and there was a yellow VL V8 getting around with the big reverse cowl scoop. Here is a white one: http://i1299.photobucket.com/albums/...ps737a4e6a.jpg (http://i1299.photobucket.com/albums/ag74/yourup/D_zps737a4e6a.jpg) Walkinshaw Bonnet Scoop: (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/Walky800x600.jpg.html) (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/New34.jpg.html) (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/New37.jpg.html) Air Filter out the bonnet: (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/New23.jpg.html) (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/New15.jpg.html) VL HDT SS Scoop: (http://s33.photobucket.com/user/Chiows/media/Show%20Cars/5a837571.jpg.html) I can't say I like any bonnet scoop's except on Walky's. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
