Hi ive been in contact with a custom carbon fiber and fiberglass shop near me that says they could create hoods for the kizashi, i told them i want to recreate the RKSport air ram hood since they went out of buisness. they said they would be willing to make fiberglass hoods and create a mold of my stock hood for future ones. so put a comment down if you want me to ask if they will make extras for yall to buy one too. Ill try to see if they can recreate the rksport one but chances are they will just make the stock hood since they'll make a mold out of mine.

Honestly the odds of it happening at this point is pretty low, im unable to delete posts but if a moderator wants to take this thread down that would be fine. If i get another and more promising lead next time ill simply make a new post

We generally don't delete threads here, especially if they relate to the Kizashi. Unless it's a redundant post or offensive, it will remain. It's actually good to document that having a custom hood made for the Kizashi is difficult and unlikely.
