Also, why not have it made as a hardtop/trunk combo? The Spoon HT is just a top, so it gets really cumbersome if you want to open the trunk.

But with this, incorperated the top and trunk lid.... that would be the closest thing to a hatch weve ever seen... have a little felt padded piece to cover the trunk area when the top is closed... like every other hatch (so you can hide whats in the trunk now that the lid is removed.)

If that was done..... you would have my $$.
On this one you can open the trunk.


I thought you cannot buy the Mooncraft top...do you ?! If yes ...where?!

I think it's hot... with a little rework on the design and for a good price I think it would be hot.

I think that there are ALOT of people wanting a mooncraft style hard top and look for a cheaper and more reasonable price.

Company in Germany making these = TUV inspection. TUV certification. Import fees. Import/destination taxes. Origination taxes (not sure about how German gov't works).

That's sounds like a whole lot of $$$.

I think mugen looks better then the mooncraft top, but that is just my personal taste.
