So nice of you! I don't necessarily need the OEM material to fix it but rather the "kit" to patch it. FYI, they're out of the black color at Rei for the moment, the store on Westheimer.

I picked up a strip of OEM softtop from another member and patched from the inside. One side was stitched as well, the other side isn't. You can check em out tomorrow.

Will do, trying to not "stitch" but instead "patch/stick" it on.

Yeah, I didn't want to stitch either but the stitch side is holding up better than the other side. Whatever we do, I think we're going to need new top sooner or later

R u meeting up with 9krevvin and I tomorrow morning?

I know! I'm already planning on getting a new one, $700 (-/+) plus long hours of labor T_T. Just need it to hold up and it works really good then I'm good .

Thanks! I actually found the clear one at their 2nd store after C&C. I'm going to buy tear aid kit as well but need to find it in black.
