that looks great, how does it look on a Z instead of an ss or ws6? how would the interior work just use the ttop shades? i would love a good looking rear seat delete that matches ebony interior well, the seats are useless but eveything ive seen looks kinda out of place...props man for coming up with all these great ideas wish i could pick up the splitter, cant wait to see what comes next!

No answers yet as it is just a plug... Although, if you cut the t-bar out you HAVE to have good SFC's first.

To set the targa over gas tank you would have to remove rear panels...

Finally, what the hell is wrong with your car that the t-tops pop out when you get on it ?!?

Seriously though, unscrew the a-pillars and back corner trip (basically removing the trim covering the places t-tops latch), then latch your t-top in and see how far the bolt is actually sliding into the bracket (probably not a lot if you're having this problem).

If it doesn't have much to grab, then loosed the bracket bolts (10mm I think) and slide the bracket slightly forward (I use a flat head) then tighten back down. Should fix your problem...

Ok, I couldn't resist... I threw it up on my car for some pics

I was going to wait until I got my splitter back on (had it off to check accuracy of splitters before I shipped) but couldn't wait so here they are...

this design looks great so far, when you have completed all the finish work I'm sure it'll flow perfectly well with the sail panel. I will be curious to see how the underside of the targa panel is finished. Do you have any solid plans for that yet? Btw have you tried the splitters on a z28 with the sport appearance package on it? if not do you think it can work? sorry to go off subject a bit

I think the roof setup would look good on a 4th gen Firebird.
This is a concept pics but greatly looks like a modded 4th gen

This might sound like a stupid question, but do you need to take out the divider bar? Im sure you do, just wondering

Default Any interest in GMMG ZL1 style Black Billet Grills w/Blue Bowtie?

Like the one on my car:



I THINK I can sell them for $150 picked up, $175 shipped. Pretty damn good considering the grilles alone are over $140 shipped:

http://www.afterthoughtsauto.com/cambilgril19.html

Not to mention the emblems are $60 + every where I have looked NOT INCLUDING the backing plate you have to make for them to fit these grilles...

I wouldn't be able to stock them though. Would have to do a pre-order of 10. Then need a weeks time for assembly so product should arrive 2 weeks after all 10 are ordered and paid for.

Not offering them right now, just gauging interest... Who's interested? Of course, those who show REAL interest here will be the first they are offered to if I am able to put this together for you guys...

I figured since I get at least one PM every few days about where I got it from it might be a good product to offer

GOD! ALL THESE IDEAS IN SUCH RAPID SUCCESSION!

I think it's a GREAT idea, and I'd get one as soon as I have money to blow on the car again!
