you wont get a book bonnet or nose to fit a cat as i am pretty surte its too wide, you could always ask on the Tiger form www.tigerownersclub.co.uk

looks quite nice (apart from the nose)
you need to take some measurements
its possible someone makes a nose that will fit otherwise you going to have to buy one and cut and shut to fit
oh dont buy a rh/gbs one even if they say it fits they tell porkies

I'm going to go mad and say I quite like it!

Could do with some mesh or something so you can't see the fan etc. inside!

Cheers,

Me too. Put some diamond mesh in it and it would look like an old Bugatti style.

paint it silver and add 4 circles, and voila. It would scream Auto Union.
