Default How much would it cost for a removable top conversion? Bad idea?

Hey all. I know a few Z06 owners would love to have a removable top (not all). Also, I know lots of C5 owners who would have bought a Z06 if they COULD have removed the top. So...

Are there any companies that will do something like this? If so, how much would it cost.. And - has anyone done it yet? Or, is anyone looking into it?

Thanks...

It can be done.

"Z06 Convertible
Transform your 2001-02 Z06 Hardtop into a convertible. The conversion is designed to have an OEM appearance with your choice of factory color top. Each conversion takes 4 weeks from start to finish. Also available is an optional removeable hardtop.

Conversion Cost: $12,500.00

Removeable Hardtop: $3,295.00"

Wow! That's awesome.. This makes my decision really easy. But.. The price just went up:

Price: $6,495.00 U.S.

Where are you seeing that low price? I want to pay what YOU say! :)

the $6495 is to convert an FRC roof so it is removeable like the coupe.
the $3295 is to purchase a removable top for a convertible/chopped FRC.
