targa top eclipse

Don't do it. You'll completely compromise the structural integrity of your car. (And I've never seen it done without being a total hack-job.)

Yeah, you wreck your more likely to be dead...just like crushing a can.

Except your in that can :lol:

if you go to dsmtuners and do a search for targa youll find your answer there. yes the rigidity of the car will be compromised those that have done it braced up the bottom and put a cage in. 2gs look pretty hot with a targa but its a shit load of work.

IIRC, That red Talon has had continual leaks from the top. So in the end (If you want to do it right.) You'll be dumping at least $3000-5000 on a cage/braces/top. Not worth it, IMO.

if it is done right there shouldn't be any probloms

Don't get why anyone would ever do that, its hideous IMHO

Yes, you're completely correct. (Except for your spelling ;) ) But you're still looking at spending $3000+ to have someone do it. You could build a race engine for that kind of money. But, hey, to each their own. It is your money, and if you want to do it I say go for it. I'm just from the school of thought that says "Go > Show"

i think its hot but im not down with experimenting and dumping that kinda money. the red car is setup for track i think the talon looks better the the eclipse.but i like my car just the way it is.
