Yeah, well your OEM top is worth just as much as a carbon mugen style top. So if you got a trade offer for a good fitting carbon one, or an authentic mugen, do it if you want. I wouldnt trade for an frp mugen replica since your top is worth quite a bit more.

Haha, I want a double sided carbon one so bad, but i'm still having to save to get an FRP mugen style top for the new group buys that will start later this week.

thanks!
well the inside really looks just like any other top, only it is cf weave just like the outside. i can take and send pics if you really want. wind noise will depend on your latches and strikers. none for me bc i modded mine. you will have the same amount that you have now with your oem top. the fitment is excellent as you can see. no complaints. and i just put in new seals, so no water.

as for the color, i dont really mind bc i can have it painted. i just want the oem look now.

where are you located?
