Well it is ALOT of customizing to make it fit as you can see from those pics, so you are almost better off making your own from the original hatch! I have already cut and prepped an original hatch for the conversion, but I stopped cause I noticed it would look REALLY silly with my kit! All you need to do is lay the fiberglass and it would be done. Thats if you need a half done one! :mrgreen:

sick disgusting doesn't flow at all with the design of the mx3. And if you want a lighter hatch you can get lexan hatch from mazdamotorsports

I think this conversion is arse ugly. If someone makes this thing a T top or a soft top roadster type deal, then maybe, I MIGHT be interested.

Friends of mine want me to make mine removable hardtop. I was telling them, "NO!" but they don't listen, lol. My one friend noticed that there was a frame all around the window, but he said, "Oh, we can just cut that off." I just wanted to hit him.

Everyone one and they're brother are Mustang people. They're trying to convert me too. I'll stick to the mx-3 and thunderbird though :D

Even when I built hot rods, I didn't like Mustangs. I'm very disappointed that they're trying to pass one off as KITT (Knight Rider).

i think that if u do the del sol hatch, you should definetly invest in a spolier on the back!
the hatch alone makes it look too bland, but adding a wing on the rear makes it look complete* thats just my opinion though
