You can always try asking insurance to cover the cost of replacing the soft top. Depends also if you have full coverage.
I have the same problems with my top... Did the fix that Chris mentioned but eventually it cracked again and started ripping.
I bought a seibon hardtop to fix the problem now the only problem I'm having is I can't put my top down anytime...

I had a couple tears forming and once I put these bad boys on, they stopped spreading instantly.
Get them ASAP

YO JEFF!! damn bro, long time no talk!
yea man, I got the same problem... my friend recently changed the elastic on my top. before it was replaced, I used to manually move that bar myself. however, the first time I did it, I DID punch a small hole on my top on the passenger (faak) from some part of the clip holding the elastic strip in place.
the hole isn't big enough to where water leaks in too much, but it's big enough! what I'm planning on doing is to put a patch on the inside with 3M adhesive spray to tide it down for while.
**OFF TOPIC**
Dude, I mentioned your name at the last weekend meet I went to and you're sooooooo OG, no one knew who I was talkin' bout!
Too bad I was lurking for so long and didn't register on S2Ki back when all us BAP'ers did like 7 years ago or I'd be super OG too

I got the material myself from a fabric store and modified paper clips to pin the straps down. My fix was under $4.
