Default Sport quattro bonnet for quattro coupe

Does anyone know somewhere (I'm in UK) to buy a sport quattro bonnet, but one that is shorter to fit a coupe?
Or, has anyone successfully modified a sport bonnet to fit a coupe?
Thanks

I thought the CGT, CQ, URQ and SportQ all had the same length bonnets?

Always assumed my sportQ bonnet was standard length?!

Apparently it's 15mm longer at the front, same width though I've been told..
Was also told that it would fit on a coupe with the sport front wings, but that wouldn't go with the rest of the bodywork so not really an option

So, hopefully there's someone out there who's already modded one to fit!

Try Brian Tonks at Tonks 4x4 as he moulds body panels for Long and SWB cars so I'm sure its not a problem.

Hi all, I only have the moulds to make genuine sport Quattro recreation bonnets.

I had a sport looky likey for the UR but sold it unfortunately.

Pity.. How hard a job to mod one of those to fit? Or is it not worth doing? (for me to do)

Where did you get it? Or was that custom?

To modify your car to fit a sport bonnet would be a massive amount of work.

The bonnet I had was a custom made one.
