Default Thanks Rex!

Here are a few pics that I snapped at Erick's last night:

Driving at night I feel like Ray Charles ... I can't see s*** out the back! I'm probably going to have the tint removed this weekend as it's a tad too dark for my tastes, and technically not legal here in NH.






Shot of the lip, minor dingy in the front... but much better than the road rash that it's covering up:



Thanks to sireousrex for the parts & elmmx5 for the garage

I'm working out a deal with Puff now on my old top. Although I'm really bad at the colors so can someone confirm which color silver this is:Old hardtop pix

Thank you Kenta!

I wanted to cry, heck I still do. On the way home,the headlights of other cars behind me were blinding with no tint. That and I was doing my Ray Charles impression since I now have a plastic rear window


Big thanks to Erick for helping with the swap! Thanks bud!! How's thursday night sound for the headlight swap?

Sounds good for me, should be relatively quick and easy now that I have that frozen screw free.

Impact wrench FTW!

It pains me to post in this topic but I believe Kenta's old hard top was Sebring.

Very hard to tell in pics but in person it looked lighter than Silverstone.

Congrats Puff

Well, I ahve to go to class in Plymouth at 5:30, but it is the last day of this course so I should be out fairly quick. I could be at your house by say 7:30. Maybe you can already have your car apart to make it easier if you want.

The car looks much better with a matching top. The old one is definitely silverstone.

If you still need it Ellen the offer still stands. You can still borrow the new one for a track day. We'll just cover it in blue tape or something

Thanks Kenta I gotta stop pretending I have money though. Prices for Lime Rock went up $100 per day... so on top of the $300 for mounting kit I would need $400 for the track day and hotel - just too much right now.

I should be able to pop the bumper off before hand easily enough.
