Re: Convertible Photography
Hey Mr. Iroc-Z: First off beautiful car you have there. They are 20x9 running a 245/35/20's. Will probably go up to a 275 in the rear when i replace them, just have to see about cutting or modifying the wheel well lip. Running tokico blues/drop springs w/about 1.2" drop in front and 1.0" drop in rear. No rubbing.

Re: Convertible Photography
Hey 1320B4U,
Where did you get that roll bar on your vert? Do you have any more pics of it? And as far as the installation is it a bolt on or a weld on/

Re: Convertible Photography
**Hey Tony: Nice pics. Rollbar is a Hawks part. www.hawksthirdgenparts.com A bit pricey at $500 but imo sets the car off. Third l.e.d breaklight built in and is a straight bolt on installation utilizing the seat belt star bolts. Just have to trim the plastic pieces around where the belts retrack in. I dont' have any more pics unfortunately. Does not affect top up/down mechanism either, but really no structural reinforcement whatsoever.

Re: Convertible Photography
It doesn't look like much right now, body work and paint should be done in a month or so. Details are listed here https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/ltx-...-underway.html.

Re: Convertible Photography
Just something a little different. Not sure if anyone has done this but if so I thought I would show mine anyway. When I imported my vert over from US of A the rear plastic window had a huge hole in it so in order to get it legal on the road I had to fix it so this is what I did instead of a plain boring rear window.

Re: Convertible Photography
hahaha i need to! but i just finally fired it up and had her move on her own for the first time in almost 2.5 years. so i need to get her drivable again then throw another paint job on it, since it looks like someone halfass keyed my car
but there will be a thread up to see what color it should be. im stuck on another shade of red. a vibrant blue. or black. if i go black itll be a while cause i dont think i can spray black that good, id have someone else do it. so i can bitch to them and have them redo it if im not happy
