F80 GTS or CS style hood for the 1?

Been looking and haven't found anything. Wondering if anyone made one that looks like this:

Not sure how it would look, but on its own, it looks pretty cool.

There is not one. I've got a spare hood and was trying to find someone to mash together a steel CS style vent to mine. Nobody seems like they want to touch the project even without talking about money. Welding on hoods is a pain in the ass.

When I reached out to Seibon about it, they'd need 20 orders before making it and there just wasn't enough interest

Eye of the beholder on that one fellas.

I guess I wanted to see what it looked like on the car, but there is a chance now we can get 20 people in, if we get renderings and know what it looks like. Trying to spruce up the hood, was originally going to go with the E9x bulge, but now I am not a huge fan. Oh well, guess a guy can daydream/imagine.

I bailed on the seibon agreement when I couldn't even find 5 people to commit to it. It wasn't cheap and finding that many to buy in was just not happening with the chassis being as cheap as it is now .
