roof chopping? anyone do this before?


Hey guys... I've seen a few cars from Japan that had the roof chop job done, ex Silvia, Mr2, Integra, Supra, Rx7, etc... has anyone chopped their roof??

Of course it would be for the shorter guys...
I've heard that it does improve CD, plus it looks nice!.. anyone??

Mike

^ This, of course, is a matter of opinion and taste.
Keep in mind...if you lower the roof you won't have as much room for those JDM window stickers and it will be harder to see that huge wing in your rearview mirror.

Although if you had a sun-roof, you could stick your head out and look like a Shriner in one of those parade go-carts.

PLEASE don't go ******* up any FD's trying to look cool. The CD improvement is most likely minimal at best.. How bout save the money and keep it running? You could always look a few threads down (or a few pages back, or a few pages after that...) at the vert FD hackjobs.
