Thats not street legal as it does not have rollbars at the back to prevent the occupants
been crushed when it rolls. Other than that, looks sexy.

I was atleast thinking if you were to spend that much dosh on a convertable conversion you'd atleast get some good mags, dump it etc. A body kit, JVM bar and ralliart sides and rear or the BMS kit would look cool on it.

Things that should be done

Bodykit of some degree, be it factory or other (possibly mix of both)
lowered as all hell
20s or 22s. if you go to that effort im sure you can make 22s fit
engine mods, even if its just bolting on a blower
custom colour because factory green doesnt go the car any justice
toyota soarer doors or similar because it would look horn as a 2 door.

M4DDOG
20-03-2007, 06:33 PM
It's too long, totally out of proportion. Needs to be shortened or 2-doored or something.
Cool idea though.

Chopping the roof has made the front end look short and dumpy. Like to see it with the windows up lol. There is nowhere for the glass to contact.

the front doors need to start another 6 inches further back, and a little more rake on the front window

Just started:D
take note of modding the start of the front door, will make it look better

Very interesting concept, I'm glad someone actually went and did it (instead of attempting photochops) but it seems abit half done, as some people have already said

MRMGNA
20-03-2007, 07:19 PM
All ive done so far.

Wheels, Dumped, shaved door handles and ralliart skirts.

Will finish tomorrow.

I think the main reason it has been kept so stock (aside from rims) is so that it is like a "what could have been" type of display. I think it looks really good for a 4 door convertable........which makes me ask, is it even a convertable, or just a topless?

el3ment
20-03-2007, 07:55 PM
I always wondered what it would look like, and now that i saw it, i dont like it at all. The shape of the magna wasn't designed for this. Makes the whole car look ****.

:stoopid:

Sorry didnt work even with the new rims. somehow it doesnt look right. The front windshield needs to slant it a bit more.

A wasted TJ.

not big fan of it, but black with paras and chrome grill with rear KJ lights and you might be goin somewhere... think the windscreen looks a bit to jeep wrangler ish, needs to be smaller and more smoothed, but nice job on photoshop guys looks good!

I think it looks like a SAAB convertible.

Johnny Cash
21-03-2007, 05:42 AM
Dunno fellas -- looks more like a Saab convertible to me... :doubt:

I reckon the go with the magna is to smack a wide body kit on it, race rims and etc. Give it that touring car look. There's something wannabe-BMW about a drop top magna.

FROGi
21-03-2007, 08:21 AM
Why the left hand drive conversion?

I mean... is it from Diamante or something? Because why would you chop the roof off a TJ, convert it to LEFT HAND drive, and not do something else stylistic to it?

Hmmm the whole concept is a little bit... errrrrrm.

But awesome find dude! I always wanted to see what it'd look like... when people see the frameless doors on my car, someone allllways says "Dude, like, cut out like the ROOF!".

Mix_Master_Priz
21-03-2007, 04:37 PM
yeh it does look like a saab. and damn it looks way hotter in that black one. cant wait to see once it's finished photochopping

21-03-2007, 05:06 PM
dont touch it, i love it!
how unique is that!
4 door, full sized convertible!
it looks like a standard car, the way it should look.
i even like the fact he's used a larger tyre on the rear, though the Right side doors are definatly differant colors.

Johnny Cash
22-03-2007, 05:48 AM
Yeah, but it would be like making a Magna into a van or a monster truck... might be unique, but that doesn't stop it being plain wrong! :rant:

Yeah not a far either. Windscreen isnt long enough, and the parcel tray should probably become part of the boot or at least shortened.

valaxy66
22-03-2007, 07:27 AM
its too out of proportion, i mean the front now looks stuby, and it looks like its got a fat ass, if you want to do that you need to shorten the length, make it 2 door, cause you can't turn a modern car into an older style cadlic or something like that
