In Progress: Chop top Silvia

I'm waiting for my Evo VII to fully dry so I can polish it out,till then I decided to do a chop top on this silvia (like the DRFT one) I had to cut the roof into 6 pieces, this is the first time I have done this and wouldnt do it again, I was jst wondering if I can get some feedback on how it looks. Thanks






This pic is kinda blurry and ony half of the roof is glued on.

Copped top = cool. You gotta do some wild motor work to back it up, though.

Re: In Progress: Chop top Silvia

Yep...the blue DRFT S15 has a chop-top. Apparently, it's a pain to actually see out of the windshield mostly because of the roll-cage but cool nonetheless.

This is the car for those who do not no what it looks like.
Also I was thinkin either Lambo doors or Skyline motor, Can I get some feedback for this idea? I should be done with the roof today, hopefully exam finals should'nt get in the way.

Re: In Progress: Chop top Silvia

lambo doors and a skyline engine! that would rule it would be like one of those crazy super tuner cars. by they way, i didn't doubt that the drft silvia had a chop top i believed you i had just never seen it before! keep up the good work.
