    So put on suicide doors

    Thats why when you chop the top you reinforce the bottom. You don't think a quality shop would just chop the top do you?

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    it would look good if done right, there is this 06 maximaa here in my area that chopped the roof and has suicide doors in the back n i think lambos in the front and it just looks pretty darn good

    im not into convertables. the only one ive ever really liked the looks of were the 240 sx's or silvia convertables. those are pretty nice. hard tops are ok looking, but im just not a rag top type dude. everytime ive ridden in a convertable i was annoyed after 10 mins. fuckin wind blowin all in my face n shit....im not into that. its cool for a really hot summer day, but i just cant see spending money to make a 4 door sedan into a convertable...just my 2cents.

    To a certain point it might look good like that but lets just keep how it was attended to look.

    You know, I was thinking of fixing the galant in my garage. It was flipped but motor runs fine. Imagine I just cut the entire roof off and make the new ends for the front windshield. I wish I was frivolus and try it.

    Accident. Deemed Unfixable. Got a check for it.

    just use a saws all and cut the top so we can see what it would look like lol....

    the galant is too big to be a convertable the front windshield is not streamlined enough... have you pulled up next to a convertable sports car and seen and noticed that the slammed G is still alot bigger the the sports car?
