I'd stick with the stock sunroof. I mean, it's not bad looking it's just I don't think it would be worth the money..just my opinion.

might as well do the whole nine yards while you're at it. might as well take it to a custom shop and have them custom install a hard top.

thanks for sharing the pictures though! they look alright. first time i've seen something like that done. that's what i cal true love.... 8)

i find that you say stupid things before doing your research often, and in most of your posts, come across as an asshole. stop it. we have no room for snobbish remarks here.

if you would have maybe asked how (or even if) he kept any structural integrity, you would have got a post from me saying that he has installed a full roll cage, and has frame wrapping(connected the rear and front subframes to decrease the extreme flexing that the targa top would cause). but instead, you got that little first part too, congrats. :roll:

i dont think that it looked all that great, its awesome that someone took the time and money to do that. I personally think the Tiburons look mean as hell with the sunroof cocked back..but hey thats my opinion.

Yeah, I agree, and whether or not tibu971.8L was right or not . That is a lot of time and money to put into a car to take the roof off. Whether or not it looks good that is an opinion, I don't like it but some would. My reason? It looks like the roof is still there. There is no break, you can still follow the roof line. Tiburon's were definitely not made for this mod.

Thanks for the pics Tibby01 I didn't think this has been done, what with all the hate on for the lambo doors and stuff.
