lol I had that top bookmarked on craigslist, guess I can delete it now. I'd like to get a Silverstone one but considered getting that one and just doing a black wrap on it.

After going through two scams (3400 on e-Bay and was shipped a shell) and a Canada scamer on this site for my down payment I finally paid 3500 and drove to san Diego for one. Enjoy! it is all the difference on the freeway. Some times you will get a nice day and no one is there to help, and you will be sad.
Top down nice day = the best, hard top close second, unless its over 100 then HT plus AC! Soft-top up in the rain on the freeway = hell

I'm really appreciating what the HT does during cold mornings - my cabin is actually warm for once. Not to mention the sound proofing; I'm really in love with it



The green is growing on me

don't paint the roof, paint the car to match! I'm assuming the roof got a respray, I don't recall electric green as an OE color. You could vinyl wrap the roof and save an extra layer of paint as an alternative.

I thought about that to be honest! It's just more efficient for me to only pay for the roof - the S is a little over two weeks old now so I'm not in the best spending situation

I think he mentioned it was either GPW or Berlina - I can see a little hint white on a spot where it chipped a little. I also considered black vinyl but why spend the money for that when I want to get it to match Silverstone down the line? As in, it doesn't bother me sooooo much to go plastidip it black for say

Yeah she's too matchy now so the car isn't cool. Found a car it would have belonged on
