how would you do it on a 7 and what would it cost and how would it alter the structural integrity?

 

I have one, this has been covered before stick with your sunroof, you'll never be as cool as i am. if you want to spend more than the value of your fc on having it done go ahead. Car flexes a good amount too.

 

very nice i dont care about the money its the love for me and body flex eh? that might present an issue

 

buy a supra

 

no..buy a vert

 

i love your car static, but throw a wing on there

 

Haha, ive been telling him that too, but noooooooooooooooooo, he wont listen. FREAK!

 

ah ha, no, not a chance in hell.

 

i have a s4 with hybrid s4 s5 interior now all black um s5 tails and front bumper and i put the stock wing on off a s5 t2 and i was thinkin targa top

 

that is damn sexy

 

so you dont think the conversion was worth it? out of all the taragas ive ever seen, yours is the most tasty

hmmm, find an TII style wing, set it on the car and take pics, im just curious

 

not to hijack, but has anyone thought of T-tops too instead of targa? you would retain a bit more of the rigidity that way. but you would have a shitload of fabrication to do....maybe you could score a T-Top from an MR2 or a camaro...hell enough people throw the engine from those shitty cars in ours...why not steal some body parts too hahaha

If you're going to do a targa FC and do it properly, you need to use Vert doors, windshield, and targa section... Make a template of the targa section out of a sunroofless FC at a junkyard, and retrofit all of the hardware... Then put a Vert windshield and doors on it... And start bracing the chassis...

 

i would love to have one, but honestly im too lazy... lol

 

that looks really nice!!!!!!and very differnt...and i now you coulld just use vert doors but i like the way the door piller is still kinda there...i know that must have taken alot of work to get that to look right....i also like the door vent holes... nice work!

 

if you welded in a full rollcage it'd be kosher

 

that sounds like the easiest way make a two-piece hard top for a vert from the the shell of a coupe

mach cheaper and more rigid than an actual targa from a coupe

 

That my friend is the plan when i re-do it. The guy who did this didnt have a clue what he was doing.

 

That's gonna be nice when you're done... Make sure you do a nice writeup with lots of pics!

 

Write up lol, nah but i'll show progress on the build, i'm sure some backwoods ****** has already started to copy my car as we speak. And who made the comment about T-tops? LOL at that, go buy a Z or Camaro er something. The Roll bar extensions i'm planning will make the car as rigid if not more than the 'vert. I also have a lil' something planned for roof storage etc. when its done it'll look like a factory option . . . i just need to get ahold of osmone who really knows what their doing with Carbonfiber and fiberglassing big pieces

 

ok i just rulled that out so im changing to another body topic what about cutting out the ftp lense area and removing the headlamp motors and assemblys then custom making a bracket to do the hella style bumper without the funds
