Hahaha, yes it should be quite an interesting project.
I just wasnt sure what i wanted to do to the top end of the car. Pretty much options were: Targa top( to much re-enforcing required), T-tops (too normal) Phantom top (doesnt allow the top to open up at all.
So i chose the sliding rag top. Going with the 35"X35" sizing. The shop that is putting it in is doing a structural integrity report as its put in so down the road if i ever get a saftey , it is completly legal and i have a paper saying the car is structuraly sound. Material of the top is going to be black canvass. I just think the vinyl material looks like poop.

Heres the site for the top ive ordered. http://www.streetbeatcustoms.com/ragtopsunroofs.html

Click on the 35"X35" canvass top link to see the exact one. So far to my knowledge ive never seen a thirdgen with a rag slider! I should be one of the first! :hail:
