Looks great but with my luck a bird would crap on it while I'm staring at the sky. Hahahah! I'd guess you'd need to modify it to accept a Targa Top and then modify the Targa to be a single glass piece with metal borders instead of all metal. Go for it!

option on a good portion of factory cars now is that all glass roof, along with a retractable all glass roof. For the purpose of an import to drive, my favorite "economy toy" from japan is the Tc from Scion which has the option.
