A vehicle bonnet 10 comprises an outer panel (12, Figure 2) and an inner panel 14 having a hinge attachment region 28. A crush region (38, Figure 3) is defined between the outer panel and the hinge attachment region 28 of inner panel 14. A support 16 is attached to inner panel 14 at hinge attachment region 28, suitably using rivets, and extends away from inner panel 14 towards the outer panel so as to support the outer panel at a support region offset laterally from the hinge attachment region. A box section (72, Figure 4) may be defined between inner panel 14 and support 16. Suitably, the panels and support 16 may be made from the same material, preferably aluminium. The arrangement of the bonnet may benefit pedestrian impact performance near a hinge 26, typically provided at the rear of bonnet 10 to allow clamshell opening, while maintaining a high standard of geometrical conformance.
