Here is an idea Brett, What about the light bar from the 95 Pacecar?

Once I get into it, I'll do some deep thinking about things. Now, if a customer wanted somethinig special, like a light bar, I could make it happen. Lots of choices and styles out there.

I do notice that the cars converted from a convertible to a ZR-1 width are different than cars converted from a ZR-1 to a convertible. The decklid is the difference. The difference is how the decklid edge is done. One wraps over the fender side. The other does not "as much".

If you go that route you should incorperate the 3rd brake lite into the light bar and make it LED as well as the tail lights

I like the 95 pace car but the litebar is to large for my taste, it almost gives a scaled down coupe w/targa off look. JMHO
