As above use box section alli. It's really light and strong. You could cover in carbon on spray same colour as your body. Are you raising the
scuttle as well ? Otherwise the bonnet won't fit to it.
Or use a bonnet bulge or scoop save a lot of messing about? Plus the come in carbon so you don't need to paint etc.

I used ali channel with the open side towards the chassis rail. Got it from B&Q or wickes its normally kept with their steel box/angle iron and
other ally sections you have to go in store though they dont show it online.But as normal with B&Q and its a bit of a rip off for what you get.
Cheers,
