I bought mine with a tear, but luckily it did have a patch. But I would first check with either the honda dealership and see what they would quote you or ask around your region and see if a local person can help you patch it. Bc a new top will cost you around 500-700 dollars.

I just patched mine last night. I have a nice little tear between the two forward bows. I cut a piece from my old top (kept it after replacement from some one cutting it) and used e6000 adhesive (found at Michaels Craft Store). So far so good.

I also have the typical tear over the right shoulder of the passenger. I'll try and patch that tonight.

Do you need a patch? How big? Depending on how big, I could sell you a piece of the OEM top material in black.

Very common topic. Search around and you'll find plenty of options though many seem to indicate that patching is just a temporary fix (may depend on the quality of the patch work).
