Hi there

Someone on here has already done it I think it depends on what colour Car you have, it's not my thing but I wouldn't rule it out if I had a Black car

Right then chap, roof off NOW sonny. The sun's out, it's no longer winter so get the bloody hardtop off - capiche

As for the exhaust etc. invalidating warranty etc. how? Check carefully - if you fit a good aftermarket exhaust I can't see how this will invalidate anything, and most (good) insurers won't charge you more if you tell them that you've just replaced the standard mild steel exhaust with a better quality stainless steel sports one. If they ask how much it increases power, just be honest. Say you're not sure but probably less than 5bhp, it's just a better quality item than the OE one.
