Default Mooncraft Hardtop



















So where are all the U.S. owners with this thing?! That's how the S2000 should have came from the factory. (the hardtop, not the spoon kit)

The spoiler looks like its intergrated, and i haven't seen one without it. I'm sure it works too...

the thing is that it doesnt look like spoiler is installed on the spoon HT. It looks like its on the OEM trunk. If so, how do you open the trunk?

The wing is on the hardtop. The "trunk" opens in two stages. Hardtop part first, then the oem trunk.

The Dome hardtop is very nice. Its weird my Japan sources say its a dry carbon hardtop and Bulletproof has it as FRP. I dont know what it is really at this point. There are a couple coming in, in late June. They were suppose to be here next week but didnt make the shipment. Anyway if these are a FRP, then the cost SHOULD be around $3000. There is no way in hell its worth more. I dont care if it is the new toy on the block. Its FRP. I got a retail of $6500 for a dry carbon one and that sounds a bit right. Still a lot for what your getting.

3k sounds abought right for FRP, now way should FRP be worth 6k+ Bulletproof says something about requiring a roll cage/bar? Any ideas, maybe its required as part of mounting or something?
