I have been looking for this answer for over hour now no luck. Anybody know if fastback doors would work rather then using coupe doors on the vert?

I want to see the vert doors on the coupe or fastback, it may look interesting. I've always thought the pillars make it look sportyer

We should collect all of our convertible doors and put them in a shipping container to send to Japan. I'm sure they'd love to be USDM tite like we are.

If you seriously think that, you've whacked your head against the vert pillar one too many times.

I don't know. I still like my door pillars. I think they are really unique. But, you know I'll chop it off if I have to someday. Vert door panels will fall apart eventually. I seat a little closer to the front after the five speed swap, so it's not right next to my head anymore.

p.s.: ish... dang! your NX coupe is gorgeious...

Power or none? Dexter has some nice ones from my old coupe. They are brown with tan leather though. They are super nice, but don't match anything.

YES! this idea is genius ^^ just picture it: sending away a crate of usdm body pieces and interior bits to Japan, and then 6-12 months later recieving a crate of JDM stock body pieces, lights etc.
