fiancee's not a fan...




























:hustler:

neogenesis2004 08-26-2009 10:23 PM

Who cares what she says....shes a woman....

Tell her to go make some chocolate chip cookies. And then send me some in the mail.


Mike (Grinder) said it would be roughly $250-350 for shipping to the good side of the US. So that would make the total roughly $1800 before paint.

leatherface24 08-26-2009 10:46 PM

Too bad you dont live close. Id help you out with paint

elesjuan 08-26-2009 10:54 PM

Meh I dunno.


It looks okay, but I don't think I'd ever want one. If someone actually did a fastback conversion on the car, not just a hardtop... That'd be a different story. I really miss the hatchback of my Z31 so it'd probably be something I'd like to have, but this just isn't me.

I hate the spoiler bit. If I had assloads of disposable income I might consider it, but that nasty lip would be the first thing to go.

Can you access the trunk with out taking the top off?

Me too. If it is guaranteed refundable, I would lock in the price as well.

Yeah, looks like top = no trunk.

If it could become a hatchback somehow with the top I'd be all over that. o.o

leatherface24 08-27-2009 08:59 AM

The trunk is removable.

Nagase 08-27-2009 09:03 AM

Removable how? You actually have to take it off? Doesn't look like it can swing up...

I'm kind of thinking of this from a "getting groceries" perspective.

leatherface24 08-27-2009 09:11 AM

Ah then in that case its a sacrafice to make cause the trunklid has to come off in order for you to use the trunk. To me it doesnt matter but in know not everyone is willing to give up the ease of the oem trunk use.

Not really liking the look on that NB. Maybe the finished product on a decent car will change my mind though.

Sure, perhaps a few of these will change some minds.

Somehow, I suspect that the ChaserAero hardtop weighs less than the Autokonexion hardtop.

leatherface24 08-27-2009 12:09 PM

ok.

jayc72 08-27-2009 12:21 PM

How does the trunk remove?
