the plastic would be a pain in the A** to bond to the hood, and would be very fragile. the only way to do it proper would be to get some sheet metal cut out your shapes curve it to the headlight a little and weld it in place, grind the welds down and fill it. prep and paint. its not too dificult if you can weld and paint.
