This isn't a half bad idea...

We all know that with a targa top you will lose handling of the car because of the support that the roof plays, but with a chopped top, done right, it would still have the support that you need.

Can anyone photochop this idea? I think it's very original, and would look very cool.

a little lower, worse background smudging because i ran out of patience tongue.gif

the hard part isnt chopping the car its getting hte background to look real

my opinion on it is that it looks good but makes the front look too big, im gonna try it on a stock car and see how that wouuld look

It's an interesting idea, but I don't know. It looks wonderful on that MR2. How would you drive the Celica with any lower roof? My head hits it now.
