well, the front strut brace keeps the strut tops from spreading under hard cornering, but the front subrame is just bolted to the front tub. i think the erp product would keep that front area from distorting when subject to torque forces. same could be accomplished by seam welding the front fenders i think.

whenever people say you just have to live with it because it is a convertible, i think of all the hypercars, most of which have targa roofs; if being a convertible was such a limiting factor with respect to frame rigidity, why are the fastest cars open-topped? there's gotta be a way to stiffen this thing.
