Put it down and leave it under the hardtop for now. Decide later to replace / repair it or remove it.

Patch and stitch it up. It'll be good for emergency situations when you're top down in the summer. Now if you find that you don't even miss being top down in one entire summer, then it becomes just dead weight in your car and THEN remove it entirely.

I'm in the same shoes (but I have my seats, apparantly snowballs pierce softtops). Please chime in ppl, is there any use for the fabric? Does anyone need pieces before I discard it?

I have an OEM Honda top sittin in my garage waitin to be installed.
