Most everything for the coupe will fit the vert. The only that sometimes has a problem is exhaust. The Vert has an extra brace that is usually in the way, you might check on it.

The struts and shocks should fit i think. The front brace will fit, the rear i don't think will.

You can move all the stuff except the shocks. You can use them, but you'd rather have the ragtop ones. As for the exhaust, you will need to finetune, but it will fit...

ah man...I can't believe you bumped this...

The verts is the same as far as shocks as any FC. The only difference is when new they used the Turbos shcok valving.

The exhaust cat and cat back are the same. The down pipe/preccats are not the same and many aftermarket down pipe will not fit on a vert unless specifily designed too.

the front brace is the same, the rear will not wiork as there are no rear strut towers
