roadster braces on coupe?
Has anyone ever but the extra bracing roadsters have on a coupe? Is it possible? Is it signifigantly stiffer?

I don't have any unfortunately. From what I was told there is some sort of underbrace. Curious how it compares form/function wise to the gtspec or tanabe pieces...

I have installed the two cross bar braces on a coupe from the roadster. I have also injected them with expansion foam to further aid the rigidity of them.

Sory, no pics. They bolt into existing holes, you just need to put in a threaded plug to bolt them in place.

No, I have no ideas on bracing the door area without some sort of door bars that would be in a full roll cage.

not too sure, but according to gtspec all of their braces are roadster compatible so not too sure what space that leaves for these braces to go???
