Default Hardtop

So I was just bored, browsing around different websites that sell hardtops. From oem, mugen, to spoon replicas, and I've noticed that the prices varies a lot from place to place...

Like I've found a mugen hardtop for $800 bucks but it doesn't include hardware. The hardware is an extra 850 plus shipping which is 250. So the total is $1900. But then the other places that charges up to $3000+ for everything.

So I am wondering where everyone got there hardtop, what style, paint cost, and cost for the hardtop itself and hardware for installation.

Thanks in advance!

Purchased my hardtop from Hseries in New Mexico for $1900 with hardware... Its an OEM Top. used to be Laguna painted Sebring Silver for free...hehe...

Best Bet is to get a used one if ur worried on price... If u pay $850 for a HT.. Id question that.. fitment may be a bitch and may end up costing you just as much if u just purchased one that actually fit the car...

I got mine from a Honda dealer in town (well, the town I lived in at the time) brand new for just under 3k (tax and shipping included). Installed it myself because I wanted to but I think they would have done it for free.

Personally I think the Honda top is the best, color matched to your car. But there's a lot to be said for a bargain and several people int he Oregon group have gotten really great deals.

The biggest thing to consider when getting a hard top is where you're going to put it when it's not on the car. We can help with that too.

This from one of our 2 S2000 coupe drivers.

I got mine from another owner. I do like the OEM unless you have a body kit then I would look at a Mugen etc.
