There is a scuttle on ebay, just search for citroen bx then filter to auction only to bin all the dross.
If you want a steel bonnet to put in louvres I found the RS turbo vents from a MK4 work really well having fitted them to two of my valvers over theyears.

All of the bonnets on ebay are the GRP type, but it might be worth contacting these guys to see if any of theirs are metal:

Thanks for the links guy's I bought a new one
Can somebody confirm which way around the long and short nose bonnets are, I've found these in the link but according to them the early cars had the short nose and the later cars the long, I thought it was the other way around? Does the short nose go with the 2 slat grill, or 1 slat?
Anyone?
