Default Targa Top coversion on a 2001 prelude? is it possible?

Isaw 2 pictures of targa top coversion on a 97+ prelude. How much does a targa conversion cost? Do you have to reinforce the bottom of the car so it wont collapse? Will it effect the balance of the car? Since I already have a sunroof, woudnt it just be like an extended sunroof, so nothing would have to be changed except cutting the whole and putting a latch? Please respond.

The car won't collapse, it'll just be really flexy. The chasis will probably twist when you try to turn.

I saw a soft top G1 CRX a long time ago. It was already a junker, and I guess the owner decided to saw off the top. I bet that car is as weak as a soda can.

Instead of a targa top, how about a T-Top instead?
