I love a good roof chop, but this one looks wrong - kind of 'bumpy' if you see what I mean.

Needs slamming and BIG alloys at least.....and a decent duotone paint job to 'lower' the bodyline.....

Humm it needs to be slammed with serious neg camber, then it may look ok

The roof chop doesnt look like its been badly done. I think the problem is the rest of the car is totally standard including the towbar, so it just looks wrong

Ewww no it's WRONG... rear pillars have been cut too far IMO - roof would look a lot better horizontal than sloped like that

if it was all one colour (same as the roof) and dropped on the floor it would be a whole lot better...

Yeah slammed (like, on the floor) over some nice rims might make it look better. Right now the propertions are all wrong Would be a lark though - I dare say summat could be done to make it presentable.

It's great! It reminds me of the old days when these shoddy-chops were common. A bit out of the suspension would've been cool, but full marks for taking a hacksaw to the roof anyway!

What were they thinking? LOL. You could make a cheap custom out of that which would be a chuckle though. Have to be tongue in cheek. Do a 70s style radical. That would rule.

I love it. Think it looks really funny and I would definetly drive it!

Likewise, i think its quite cool, could definately do with further modding to finish it off but its a good start. Ive never seen a chopped Ital before, i think this has potential.
