These are different for the converts than the coupes, right? Who makes them for our cars. Wouldn't mind stiffening up a few shakes and shimmies on uneven road...

I know Kenny Brown DD's and BMR.

They are differnt than the coupes since the Convertible already comes with additional reinforcing on the floor pan

SLP makes some for the ragtop, huh??

Well, I've heard some people complain about lost ground clearance with BMR SFC's.

I passed on the global west SFC's since they're only rocker-panel beams. No Diamond design.

SLP doesn't make/sell any convertible SFC's.

I ended up with Kenny Brown Double Diamond SFC's from TByrne. Nice looking peices. Reinforces the front LCA mounting brackets.
