Theres a customs shop up here in chicago that does that stuff, like does caddilac eldos, elc's and etc's, and so on, they primarily do cars that dont have a convertible option, but its usaully preminum cars. They usually do a test car and then build to specifics. You could look them up, im not sure of a name, but i think that the cost of resources for a conversion like that would be more then the benefit of doing it, other words not worth their time to bother, I mean im sure they would love to take your money of you really want to spend it on getting your civic to be a convertible, but your probably going to get out cheaper buying a convertible and trading the civic in.

I dont know if our cars would look that good as a Convertiable. Kind of like the Cavilars, they look stupid as converts.

Not hating, but some photoChops would be cool.
