I think its sold as a whole package. Besides, if you do manage to get the bonnet by itself, im not quiet sure it will look good cuz then you will have 2 vents in the front, 1 from your stock bumper and the other from the new bonnet.

That bonnet is actually longer than the stock bonnet, there won't be double vents, becuase the longer bonnet actually covers where the bonnet is supposed to go. Even if you can buy the bonnet, there will be quite abit of work to be done, since the shape of the bonnet acceptance in the front bumper is in a different accepetance shape of the GTStreet RS front bumper. You can actually see that the GTStreet RS bonnet is longer from that picture.

SRatha is correct. The carbon hood in the GT Street RS package is designed to work in conjunction with the front bumper. The front bumper is reshaped to accept the longer hood that now incorporates the air vents. Plus, TechArt no longer sells any GT Street parts separately. So it's either all or nothing. It's unfortunate for people who already have other aero parts one their car and want one aspect. But the upside to selling it this way is that it stops people from making what I like to call "half-*** GT Streets" and upholds the unique and rare experience of running into an authentic model.
