Scott's right - to cleanly run an OE 04-05 scoop on your 07, you'd need to track down a clean 04-05 hood, have a truly expert TIG welder graft in the hood flange to your 07, do a bunch of body work, modify the inner support, do some more body work, let it shrink for a few weeks, do some more body work, after the aluminum warps from head and lack of ability to breath from the bodywork - do some more body work, wait for it to shrink some more, then finish body work and paint.
Of, go the cheaper route and pick up a carbon hood that uses the 04-05 scoop shape, and paint match it.
But after all of that, you'd end up with a less effective scoop, and less of the "sleeper" styling you seem to be after.
A large part of the 06-07 facelift was dramatically improving the aerodynamic shape of the prior boxy nose (which itself was a dramatic improvement over the bug eyes), and significantly reducing the coefficient of drag. How'd they reduce the CD so well? Less scoop, among other things.
