Rudycob1 – Here are a few answers to your questions…
Has this been done before?
- As far as I know, no one has modified the current SWB 250 kit to fit a Z4.
- I'm sure
Danny_HUFC was talking about using a Z4 as a donor once, but I'm not sure what happened with that idea.
Is it possible to do and will it look closer to the original shape than on a z3?
- I am sure it would be
technically possible, but whether it would look better is a different story.
- Are you looking to do the work yourself, or get someone else to do it for you?
- As
Chris posted this the other day.

However, the 275 coupe was a one off set of panels paid for by a customer.
So Tribute
may consider a one off conversion if the price is right.
Either way, I would not underestimate the amount of work involved.
Because as soon as you start ‘cutting & shutting’ one area, there will be a knock on impact on another.
Which means you will end up building a ‘buck’ rather than a body shell and therefore need to take a mould for your kit.
And I would strongly suggest you discuss that idea with Chris
before you do anything else.
Cheers, Paul.
