It won't fit. Not only would you have to remove the trim, there is a portion of the chassis that runs between the two struts in such a way as to obstruct a conventional bar that fits the hatch. If someone did manage to build a bar to suit the coupe, it wouldn't do much. J-Speed "triangle" style would give you some extra rigidity, but again won't fit without modification.
