There was one for sale recently, I think it was on carsguide with a WRX-style scoop that looked kinda cool.

Those scoops on the blue bonnet look like Sierra Cosworth vents. Not GT Falcon scoops. I think that there is a fine line between what can have scoops and what cant. Older sleek muscle must retain the cool lines unless you are Chip Foose, that dude has designed some horn cars. Trying to warp new style into old cars can backfire if you dont know what you are doing.

Yea if you do it wright, i seen a old ford GT XA/XB bonnet with the two air inductions cut out and fitted to a 1200 bonnet. it looks heaps tuff, like a GX bonnet with scoops built in. I'm going to go with the scoop similar to the pro-stock but smaller and off-set. im trying to decide if its going to be painted black with the bonnet or painted the same color as the car. there are a few cars with black bonnets these days. the origional and best black bonnet would have to be carbon fibre.

Some nice scoops there, the white 120Y with the big offset scoop looks a bit crazy, i dont know if its a sleeper about to rip at the lights or if its a granny special with those cheese cutters + hub caps. Ha ha heaps mad. I was going to use two bonnets and have one with a scoop for air flow (not just looks) and a clean bonnet also. I rember when i first got into datto's you would think twice about running the Datto with a scoop.
thanks for the pic's

Agreed with Pepper, Patrol all the way if you're going to have one. Other than that, nothing too big or crazy. vents are okay but not too big either... I prefer just plain bonnet though.
