Nobody makes one at the moment. Your only option is to buy the bulge separately and then have it grafted on

yeah I've seen the bulge sold on its own on ebay, how much do you think it would cost to get it fitted? The main reason I want to buy it complete is because then it just has to be painted and fitted which I can do myself, but grafting fibreglass to metal, I think I'll be paying someone to do that

Id say between $300-600 to fit. I emailed him about a price ill see if I still got a copy
This was how much the ebay seller who is selling those quoted me $250 for moulding it onto bonnet, $300 for painting the whole bonnet, thanks

What's fonreglass?
There's a TE/TS50 somehwere around (blueprint, IIRC) that has a BA bulge. You could always ask him how/where he got it done. The other option other than fibreglass may be to buy a wrecked BA bonnet, and have the skin fitted to the AU bonnet. Probably very expensive though.
