After watching my roof replacement last Saturday (and portions of two others) I can't stress strongly enough to find someone who has replaced several S2000 roofs successfully and has all the tools. I doubt any Honda dealer can do this. Seats and much of the interior and trunk panels need to come out, rivets drilled out, roof frame burrs sanded and painted, etc. That's just getting the old roof off! Then everything has to back on the car including riveting and gluing sections of the roof, reattaching wiring under the seats, etc.

If you want to drive to NJ, Jeremy the Soft-top madman will knock it out in style while you wait.

He did four roofs while we waited on Saturday up in DC. I was there for all of mine and a bit of two others. Easy peasy -- for us!

I could use a new top on my 06 as well, as I have the typical tear on the passenger side. Find 1-2 more people, and paying for a flight still might be less expensive in the long run than paying a shop here in Denver to do it.
