How much to get one of these bonnets made? (Just the light cover parts) not the air scoops.

Hi people,
Past few months I've been a bit busy and had no time for the van and been using it for work so it's looking and sounding a little sorry for its self :(
So me and Allan n have done some thinking and talking and thought,seeing as we have a couple of months to go for billing,we are gonna strip the van to bare shell and give it a new paint job and a engine upgrade and a bit of tlc :P
So I will be stripng tomorrow and I will get some pics up for you all 8)
