Default New roof @ Carhood warehouse

2002 Nurb blue, owned since new. Hood quite bad, tears in places. Asked Monsoon but they did not have blue coloured fabric. Went to Carhood ware house last Thursday. Fitting took three hours. The fitter seemed very knowledgeable, had done many S2000s. Replaced all four elastics, fitted rubber seals properly as I had messed this up when trying to repair water leak.

A bit of a rattle from various places on the way home. Realised rivet heads probably left in frame - took rubber grommet off the side of the bar that holds the front of the top elastic, rivet heads fell out. Still a bit of a rattle, left it for two days, as one is meant to leave top closed for at least two days to let it stretch. Then opened clasps and fitted pieces of cardboard in usual places, now extremely quiet.

The top folds properly and all the way down. Colour match very good. All in all 100% satisfied.

Cost £ 795 minus £ 50 S2KUK membership if you have it.

Three hours for fitting?! Blimey, that's an improvement. Mine took a full working day.
