More seriously, I think the parts vary in some key dimensions.
May be worth taking a measuring tape out and posting them up.
Ones I would take would be:
Width of scuttle at back
Width of scuttle at front
Height of scuttle at front - middle and side
Height of scuttle at back - middle and side
Width of nosecone at widest point
Height of nosecode at highest point
diagonal of nosecone
Length of nosecone from front top leading edge to top back

Make your own in aluminium, you'll know it fits then.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Most of the companies lay up the bonnet "over sized" and then trim it back to suit their dimensions, if you ask for one untrimmed you
could then cut it back to fit your car.
Or make an ally one as Peteff says.
