Clam Shell Hood Conversion

Just a idea I have been bouncing around and would appreciate some feedback on. Has anyone ever considered doing or run across a clamshell hood conversion for the OG 9-3? As I’ve conceptualized it, maybe source as much of the hardware from a OG 9-5, including the hinges. I recognize that this idea would require a lot of metal work for the fenders and hood, but the OG 9-3 design with the strong character line always seemed to cry out for this design element. Almost like it might have been intended then axed at some point in development. I know the Saab community is creative. I recall some years ago a website that converted 9000s to host the center mounted ignition switches.
Does anyone have any ideas or insight into the feasibility of a clamshell hood conversion? I doubt that I am the first person to at least consider this prospect.
Insights, feedback and ideas appreciated!
Thank you
