Default Finally joined the OEM hardtop club

So I went and bought it over the weekend. First let me say that I love it and that the road noise reduction is well worth it for long trips.

Washed and waxed the car and then took this picture.

Congrats! Where it is now, is where it will stay. Once you get the hardtop it never comes off! Plus the car honestly looks a lot better with it...

Thanks guys! But about the hardtop being permanent... SoCal summer is going to make that an interesting challenge.

Nice addition! I'm 50/50 on leaving mine on all the time. I do love the way they look but it's nice to have the top down on a sunny day.

Yeah I need to build a hardtop stand. I'm debating on using PVC like on a write-up on here or out of metal.

Either way its going to be 80* this weekend...

I've made 2 hardtop stands over the years out of pvc and it is totally worth it, and fun to make.

Do you still have the plans or did you just base your design off some pictures you saw?
