Love it with the top down. Not so much with the top up. I think the roll bar would be better black so it doesn't stick out so much.

Yep, agree on all that. this is a unibody car, so like the Z's, when you chop of the top of the box you have to add a serious c-channel under the doors, else they don't fit for long.
that top looks to be Jeep or Bronco, shortened a bit.

The problem with the top is that it is too square in the back. If it were slanted like like the original top, it would look worlds better.
