Same top as an Elise, I don't see how bad it can be.

And I don't know why that convert subie is in here. Looks nothing like what you are trying to do. At least post something TARGA related.
yea no kidding its not a targa top?

how it is relevant to OP is that this guy had an idea, went through with it and it didn't come out as expected. sorry for bringing some humor to the thread. didnt know the internetz waz seriouz biznesss

ps. if you wanted a targa top ya should have bought a supra/300zx
Humor? Or clutter? This is definitely not all serious business but why stop someone from doing something different just because you don't THINK it will look good. So by your logic we should stop trying something new if someone has failed before? People try and fail at new things all the time, but that's how we get progress. If we all did the same as everyone else then I would think the car scene would be pretty boring.

If we wanted a 300zx we would have bought one. But we all have s2000s and some of us are just trying to find new ways to stand out and enjoy our cars even more.

p.s. I think that Z has the potential to look hot with that top. If it had a more aggressive look I think it would work nicely. Id definitely drive it as is tho.

^^Agreed,a Mugen or OEM style would look the best though if it were actually attempted IMO. Some people still say the OEM vented hood cut mod is irrational and ugly, but some other people (like myself) love my vented hood and wouldn't trade it for anything. I'm going to plagiarize an older Scion slogan when I refer to the entire S2K community: "united by individuality". Go for it dude

But LOVE the spoon hartop! So why not have the best of both worlds! Here is my MS paint while at work of what it would kinda look like. What you think?

Maybe retro fit the del Sol targa to the S?
