Well anything is possible with money and work.

Sadly, mt2 won'the fit properly on your vert. The wheel arch on the qtr panel and front lower valance are different. Going mt1 will also require mt1 compatible front lower valance.

M tech 1 is designed for early, non US spec cars, m tech 2 is designed for later facelift models US or Euro. Unfortunately, your car is neither of these. A conversion will need to be done either way so go with which ever you like best.

Thanks so by any chance does anyone know how hard this conversion is to do and will a regular bodyshop be able to do it because I'm not very handy also has anyone ever done it before thanks for the help guys

Sorry but have another question by any chance can anyone point me in the direction of where I can get a list of side skirts that will fit a 1989 convertible thanks for the help I really appreciate it

search "mtech1 vert". you'll find actunge30's S52 MT1 convertible.

an mtech1 front apron will fit a DB vert fine. they're hard to find and expensive though.
mtech1 side skirts are absolutely impossible to find. I've only seen them on Frank's car.

as Barry (reelzimpro) mentioned MT2 won't work on a DB car.

you can facelift a DB vert with plastics. all bolt on. see my sig for a thread and pics.

my vert build thread has a boatload of research on it including MT1 stuff.
