Thanks, Jere, I didn't know that. I'm sure the fiberglass is also up to
Steve's high standard.
Also, one of the scoops linked appears to be the larger 427 SC type, which
is very similar to the '07-'08 Mustang Shelby GT's. The one I (personally)
think fits the Tiger is the smaller, FIA Cobra type, which was actually a
part of the Cobra's hood, originally, but works fine with pop rivets, also.

Steve Alcala also had/has the same scoop in fiberglass.

Subject: Re: [Tigers] Bolt-on Hood Scoop On Original Hood?
I ordered what I thought was a replica of the original Cobra FIA scoop from
Tony Branda and it ended up being the same scoop as I have on my '07
Mustang Shelby GT. It appeared out of place when I mocked it up on the
Tiger,
as it was just too big and covered too much hood space.The Cobra scoop is
smaller and more in scale with the Tiger's hood, I'd say. I sent it back.
Alcala makes a very nice aluminum replica, but the price is very much in
line with his great workmanship...
I'm sure, with more research, there is a good source for a proper FIA Cobra
scoop at a reasonable price, but I've tabled the idea for now...just can't
bear the thought of cutting into my freshly painted hood!
