New to NECO

Hello everyone Im new here to NECO and I've been checking everyones threads out. I've finally found some parts I've been looking for thanks to everyone on here. I've got a 99 coug and I love her. I messed around and got a bike last summer and ended up ignoring her for a year other than in the winter time. Well needless to say spring came around and I opened her top and dang I didn't realize how much I missed her. Not to much custumization on her yet. Just been dropped 2 inches Drift body kit carbon fiber hood. Split the exhaust and put to import style fart cans on the back. And I've looked at a couple of threads on it and me personally I love the way mine sounds and looks I get a lot of compliments on it. I've been thinking about doing the MTX to ATX transfer cuz I miss my MTX from my other cars. I've got a few ideas on some cuxtoms but don't know yet. Has anyone ever seen or heard of anyone doing a hollywood style top like on the Toyota Supras?? I've thought about it but im not for sure. Well hit me up sometimes hope to hear from everyone

It's called a "Targa Top", and this chassis isn't braced for it. Somebody did it once; the car didn't last long. It folds in half like a taco.

Style?

Class?

Bare carbon fiber is going to be looked upon like underbody neons or spinner hubcaps in about 5 years. Get ahead of the curve.
