Default Recommended Hardtop



Help, I have read a lot of the posts about the hardtop but am not sure which one to buy. I was planning on ordering the OEM top from the dealer but have read and heard about hardtopguy and King Motorsports.

Would really appreciate a sincere response.

Thanks,




Eric

Maybe I'm crazy.. but I really don't like the Mugen top. I think the OEM looks the best.

depends on what you look on ur hardtop its all on ur perfence in looks. one thing OEM has over mugen is that OEM has rewindow defroster, finsh interior, and less of a blind spot. if u can get it cheaper for dealer then hardtop guy obviously buy it.

Once I ordered OEM LBP hardtop but cancelled when I heard from the
dealer that its going to be a while before they ship first LBP hardtop.

I liked Mugen hardtop shape better than OEM but too expensive for
me. Initially I didnt like the shape of Mugen but now I like it better than
OEM.

I was quoted $2,800 + taxes (no charges for installation when I
purchased my MY06) from my dealer.

Mugen does look much better in person than the OEM and receives much attention. Quality wise the Mugen Hardtop is shit.
