Jeff!!!!

well chassis stiffining will help yes. Honestly your box isn't going to flex unless under severe abusing conditions and even then it probably wouldn't.

 

Bah i knew it was jeff, Jim

just playin. looks good though. is it power or manual?

 

lol....np.

manual

 

The wing should've stayed in the junk pile. I like the Green, that's a color that should've been offered as stock. The front bumper is not to bad. It's got some style and still looks relatively like it could be Toyota factory, not horribly garish like some of the designs Veilside kits and others. The round fog/driving lights really don't even look out of place on a box being they're inset into sqaured openings. Really, it's nice enough to possibly copy. Wonder how that would look under a Lowbox hood

 

i'm doing that bumper on mine(slightly different)...remember...you need to get a smaller window washer container or find a place to relocate your existing. just an fyi

 

Who sells it?

 

nobody produces them. we make them

 

There may be more "we"'s more sooner than later. Called a few dealers and got some figures on new OEM Suby parts to hack apart. As Lip I'm sure already knows, but there are a handful of variations from Suby on the Impreza front ends (the one pictured is from the 02/03 WRX turbo). The cover from a WRX turbo WAGON is not to bad either, it's just one open slot w/o the two ribs in each side.

For those looking to make their own, be forewarned that the Scion parts are made from 'TSOP' pp/ep plastic - aka 'oily plastic' and is not the easiest material in the world to weld and make it look good too. I don't know what the exact material of the Suby cover is made from, something similar I imagine - some version of polypropylene is the most common/cheapest.

(sorry for taking that a little off-thread LIP, thread's about your roof... not your buddy's ride. --- BTW, Thanks again for the x-brace, doing great still.)

 

glad its working out for you

i have this bumper to work with as well. i have both the wrx and the older RS. we'll see

 

Any Problems with body Stability

 

none. its actually very quiet as well because of our flat windshield taking the air all the way over the vehicle

 

Love that top!

What would I look for/search for if trying to get one done say in LV or So Cal???

 

ditto that; ive been in the market for a roof that size, but soo many people say "it cant be done"... im glad you did it.

pm me if i can get one here ( i know how to install)

 

great idea let me know how much it cost an if its power

 

no power of course

1700-1750 installed i believe.

yes...i can order you one...let me work on the account

 

What about body flex?
Stability?

 

fine fine

 

Man you should have just had the whole top cut off make it a convertable but really though it looks nice and probably feels good driving in warm wheather. As for the other xb thats hot too but that wing dose have to go.

 

lol. i'm driving that green one for the next 2 weeks. AGREED but the bodyscheme is nice as well as the fogs.

if anyone in the tri state area wants one of these tops. 1700 installed. 609-298-3323 ask for John.

Jeff

 

that looks hotttt, just watch out for the birds
