It looks good but I just don't like where the used to be b-pillars are it makes it look tacky with the top down that is. Its just my opinion. I ain't hatin' I'm congratulatin'.

Nice work. Aside from the b pillar bar, which I'm assuming is the stock rib covered, were there any structural rigidity mods that were done? Any concerns with body flex? Props for having a nutty/original idea and going for it.

The more I look the more I like. too bad the top doesn't hide and the roll bar thingy isn't more seemless with the B-Pillars...but certainly very cool and a nice job for the first try.

As for the fellow east coaster that wants one.. "why" ?
