Depends how handy your with tools !!
All you need to do is mark it out on the bonnet then drill / cut it !
Might be worth making a template of the vent first ?
Or if you want them to look factory fit, get an old Astra GTE bonnet and cut the sections out of the bonnet and weld them into yours.

Best way of doing them IMO. Cut square out of Nova bonnet, weld in square from Astra bonnet with vent. Check welder settings so as not to warp the metal. Bit of filler, primer and paint and bob is very much your mothers brothers uncle possibly, maybe!
