6LEDesigns is willing to do Fiberglass or CF T-Tops

they are good people and have done a lot for 4th gens. i posted on their forum if they would do t's for our cars. he said yes and asked how many would be down for it.

minimum of 5 people

the glass ones will be cheaper than CF obviously. they will also accept the stock hardware.

heres the 4th gen stuff. targas in carbon and fiberglass:

Re: 6LEDesigns is willing to do Fiberglass or CF T-Tops

i havent seen anything. im good friends with him and have been tryin to get him to do more 3rd gen stuff but he says that most 3rd gen and alot of 4th gens guys dont like the prices. he does do quality work and will work well with you if there is a problem.

anyways i see him like almost every weekend and he hasnt talked to me about any 3rd gen stuff recently.

i got the only set of his overlays for 3rd gens and when people ask me the price they say nope and just want the cheapos. so theres an example. these overlays are made of factory material and can be made to say/show whatever you want in any color or font.

Re: 6LEDesigns is willing to do Fiberglass or CF T-Tops

Why not use the Lexan tops? Compared to the glass tops these weigh in maybe 10lbs vs 30+

I have a set but they are pretty marked up as they are really easy to do so. I like the carbon fiber idea as it wont be see thru like sock tops. I have sun shades on mine anyways but I would like to see them still

Re: 6LEDesigns is willing to do Fiberglass or CF T-Tops

KICK AROUND THIS: sand & paint the Lexan, carbon look, black or even body color? I was licking around spraying mine body color just for something different.... I have glass ones if I want the sun to come in.

Re: 6LEDesigns is willing to do Fiberglass or CF T-Tops

This might give you an idea on pricing...


.......................................................................
1993-2002 F-Body CARBON FIBER Targa Top

http://6litereaterdesigns.com/store/...roducts_id=227



Price: $950.00 $750.00
Shipping: $100


Product Description:

Once again it is time to UPDATE that VERY DATED appearance of your 1993-2002 F-Body! Time to get rid of the "******" inspired t-tops (that look the same way they did on "Smokey and the Bandit" in the 70's!!!) and upgrade to a one piece targa top with MODERN LINES (inspired by the Fifth Generation Camaro and the C6 Corvettes)...



The best part, IT ONLY WEIGHS 12lbs!!!! The weight savings over those glass tops is PRICELESS!!!

To mount our targa AS A REMOVABLE ROOF (most racers just "screw and glue it" or use Dzeus fasteners), you simply bolt it to a set of t-top brackets (it comes with four studs sticking out, you just need to drill holes in your t-top brackets and then tighten it on with nuts and washers, not included), remove your center bracket (it unscrews), latch on and go!

These generally take 1-2 months (sometimes longer, if you're on a time crunch know that once you place your order there is no refund if it happens to take longer, obviously if it is a lot longer like 4-6 months we'll work it out and refund if need be but allow a one month window on these) to receive just due to the amount of orders we receive and the fact we only have one mold.

I'd like to see a set of T-tops made, not the 1 piece.
