Pardon my ignorance, but if they are about the same weight, why would you bother?

im not sure about over where you live but over here in the uk all of the vented hoods suffer from rust , and as there are two skins of metal wich make up the hood its hard to get the rust cured properly, and as many people have found out that because the metal is thin it is hard to weld new metal on with out making the hood buckel due to the heat of welding ,,, so if you have a fiberglass hood rust no longer becomes a problem.......

I think that 300 pounds (A$750) would ba a little too much money for somebody here in Oz. We have to add shipping to that price as well.

Rust is not a problem like it is in the UK because we don't spread salt on the roads in Winter time like you guy's do. I am not sure I have ever seen a Starion bonnet with rust in it? It's certainly not a common part to rust.
Unfortunately our exchange rate with the UK pound is not good.
Anyhow good luck with your sales I'm just letting you know why there may be a lack of interest from our side.
