Do you like the tunnel hatch on the hard top? That might actually be doable with the Zr

it would be unique, but how much time and money are you willing to spend? custom fab work can add up fast

Thanks because being jealous of your awesome car wasn't good enough...

We got the jdm cooker as a house warming gift from a lady who said our old rice cooker was an embarrassment.

The rear of the trunk has a slightly different shape than the hatchback. In order to get my Nismo replica spoiler to fit, I just had to grind a little of it to fit the trunk and then used some rubber as a gasket to seal it.

Donno yet. First I gatta get some dam dimensions and get the basic ground work to see if its even feasible or possible before I go making up plans..

True. But not so much tho when your cousin/roommate is the main fab tech/welder for a custom VW shop.


We've been looking for an excuse/project for him and I to cut something and let me start welding and cutting. Figured this would be perfect and kill 2 birds with 1 stone.


If it flops at least I get some welding practice. At least before I start welding brace bars and my full tube chassis we hopefully have thought up.

That's pretty much what I had in mind. depending on fit. See if a hatch would match up, or just bend/fab from a sheet metal blank.
