Thumbs up Needa New Bonnet!!!!

The bonnet on my EA is bassically rooted..it has a dent above the right headlight and the paint work on it is shocking..i tried to touch it up myself but a grannys bottom would be glossier..so time for a new one i reckon..does any body know if EA-EB-ED bonnets are interchangeable?
and also if any body knows of somebody selling a decent one in monza red, let me know..

cheers

EB-ED bonnets are the same but the grille mount is different, unless your running XR front.

I dont have a bonnet but i have a spare twinlight front.
