It will fit, you will have a nice gap to let in some extra air in round your engine, you will also need to modify the bonnet latch or you will need 2 people to open it (one to pull the latch from inside the car while the other pushes down on the bonnet and releases the catch or do what I do and have a small piece of wood to jam in the catch from inside the car while I open the bonnet release catch). Ideally to do the job right you need a Gt4 Bonnet, Bumper, Latch and Crash Bar, but trust me it looks good without all that, personally I love the gap, nice Knightrider LED strip would fit the gap lovely. Here is a pic from a member on CCUK (Kevstir) to give you an idea what it looks like.
