Nothing bolts right up and everything needs modification. Jeff Lemke has done one or two and now doesn't offer it any longer. He does sell a Street Serpent package which widens the body two inches and adds a coupe rear to the convertibles. Priced around $15K installed.

Jeff's a great guy, and the pictures speak for themselves as to how great the car looks after the conversion. I saw Rocket's car in person, it looked amazing.

Factory Coupe qtrs, bumper fuel cap will bolt up, you just need the custom decklid. Jeff won't sell the decklid seperate, at least not when I asked not too long ago.

Sounds like if you can get a coupe top welded on, you actually CAN convert your 'vert into a coupe.

Yeah it's ashame he doesn't sell it seperately. While I like the look of the SS front fascia, I like my cars slammed and that fascia doesn't allow that. I would also be happy with the stock width too, yanno?

^ I agree. When I heard the SS's were widened, I was shocked! Vipers are wide enough as it is lol. I actually prefer the stock front end as well... Someone should fabricate a custom coupe decklid :p

You can convert a convertible to a coupe, as a local friend did it (ADV.1 Viper). However, with the money you would spend doing the conversion, you are MUCH better off trading the Vert in for a Coupe. They nickle and dime you for every little thing to make it a coupe, and at the end of the day, it's titled as a convertible.
