Default Hardtop installed!


I received the hardtop from Jeff(Hardtopguy) yesterday and had it installed.
I couldn't be happier with the overall fitment/quality.
The cabin is so much more quiet than before.
The exhaust drone from the HKS is much less, and the audio sounds way better

I was surprised how big the box was at first, but when I opened it up, I realized it had to be that big to prevent the top from potential shipping damage.

Jeff was generous enough to ship me the installation hardwares in advance while I was waiting for my top.
I installed the side catchers and all the necessary hardwares several days ago,
and when the top was delivered to my office, all I had to do was to grab a co-worker help me put it on my car.

I heard that the top mostly doesn't need adjusting, but I thought the top was sitting a little towards the back.
So I decided to give it a shot and after struggling with the adjusting bolts, the driver's side it sitting even more towards the rear!
I'll have to work on it later this week.
But for now, I'm happy

I'd like to thank Jeff for excellent customer service and helping me out throughout the whole process.

Here are some crappy pics.

Thanks,
That picture really accentuates the wheel gap, wow.
I should seriously consider lowering it.

I know it's nothing special, but was so excited and wanted to share some pics.
Thanks for the compliments, btw.

Thanks for all the compliments guys!
I'm enjoying the hardtop more than I expected.
Good thing is, I don't hear anymore of the annoying creaking sound from the top. I hated that.
