That's what I figured. how thick did you go with the mid plate, if you don't ind me asking? I've always understood that one mounted that way needed to be a good bit thicker. did you also put a couple "tabs" in the frame down below as well, or is it just hanging that way? A better picture would be killer.
As for the 200 mph comment fireball... all I can think about is the targa top flying off the supra in fast and the furious towards the end of the movie....

We sell a carbon fiber piece and a fiberglass piece. The fiberglass piece is the weight of one t-top, the carbon fiber piece even less...

You either attach t-top hardware to it (so you can just take it on and off like t-tops) via built in hardware OR you just screw and glue it (to make your car a "hardtop", couple customers already did this).
Our next shipment of 10 comes in Feb 9th and 6 are already paid for. Two month wait after that...

We're also going to offer a bracket that would bolt in place of the center t-top bracket. It would cover the holes and also have a lip at the front for the targa to slide into, thus holding it down with no worries of ripping off...

Ours was made with the intention of DD's using it as a t-top replacement. The reduced weight for racer's was just a plus...
Waterproofer, do you have any pics with how you installed the fastners.. I was just about to do a hardtop conversion but this may keep me from cutting up a perfectly good chassis.
We might be able to make one offs like that BUT the piece you're referring to (I think at least) is not like ours. It is just a CF skin that you have to screw and glue where as ours is CF, with a core and mounting/bracing for hardware.

For non-full, just remove center bar and latch this down. Stock weatherstripping keeps water in the rain channel and out of the car...
For FULL targa, you cut out the metal center, make the lip/channel go straight across. Then cut the driver side t-top weather stripping at the back corner and the passenger side at the front corner. Then stretch the driver side to the passenger side (front) and passenger side to the driver side (rear). Super simple.
