Evo IX style bonnet for ES lancer

Does anyone know anywhere that sells or makes evo IV style bonnets in australia, or Qld, which fits my 06 lancer ES. Either just standard material, or carbon fibre. I could only find places in the U.S. and i really dont want to ship the ****ing thing all the way here, and i've been told no one has made any here yet.
Cheers

David what we really need to see is some of those really nice body kits that you guys have especially the Evo 9 front bar in the new stuff that you guys now use to make them (sorry can't remember the name of it but it is not F/G) ohh and also the eyelids

Ok I saw your original post before it was edited and I will now ask you for some suggestions as to other ways for me to cool the engine temp on my car other than putting a vented styled bonnet that looks similar to an EVO if you can come up with an idea then please let me know - as I have done most things to try and keep temps down I have had the manifold HPC treated the dump pipe etc removed all of the try guards....

i have to agree with chowetime, no its not sad (ok well a little if u get a whole evo kit on a stock lancer)
but the hood and spoiler are just kick **** and i want so screw u :P
but i dont know now if i want a bodykit, coz i like the stock sleeper look, even tho my engine (atm) is still stock ...

*edit*
like for example i like chowetimes lancer asiz, but if she wanted a evo kit on it why not, becuase it is way past stock. and even though it is only running low psi at the moment, theoretically it could munch an EVO becuase im pretty sure evos are 2ltr turbs, while chow's is a 2.4ltr turbs running in a lancers engine which naturally runs at really high compressions i believe ...

(btw evo8downunder, im not having a go at you, im just explaining that in alot of cases a little of evo touch doesnt hurt, but if u dont like it well dont look, i know i dont like the look of some peoples cars but that it there choice and preferance)

Its easy for us to ship to Australia as the parts are coming from our Asian Factory.

So shipping time is around 14-18 days VIA Sea.

I know owners of lower spec Lancers couldn't care less, but the amount of crap Evo owners cop from other performance car drivers, especially the Subaru boys, about the amount of 'riced up' stocko Lancers on the road is ridiculous. Thank God at least the Evo 7-9 have different shaped headlights to other Lancers... it makes pulling off a convincing mock up a lot harder.

I'd love to burn the bodykit of every riced up GL on the road.

chowetime - respect to you for actually caring about performance. Amongst non-Evo Lancer owners I think that makes you something of a novelty. I understand why you need the cooling vent, no argument here. I'm moreso referring to the owner who sticks a massive fibreglass kit on a stock 1.5GL.
