Hardtop to T-Top Conversion
I saw a red camaro yesterday with t-tops and was so jealous, it's pretty hot in the south and I would love to have t-tops on my car.
Is it as simple as replacing the roof?
Would the structural integrity be the same as factory installed t-tops? I would add frame stiffeners and everything I could

Its a pretty complicated time consuming process but if done right with subframe connectors it can be done. I've thought about doing this since my roof is bubbly as **** but I decided I am just going to buy a carbon fiber shell and tint it a little with black and clear mixed paint.

I've done it myself before, it's not that hard.
Before the first cut:
With the roof skin off:
Cutting and forming the corners and channels:
Test fitting the weather stripping and tops:
Dong some quick body work:
All done:
