Default Convertible cover

Anyone bother with the convertible cover? The way the top folds down is pretty clean. I'm not sure if I'll ever bother with the extra cover.

I did not get the cover and have no regrets. The top folds clean and I suspect that I would not often take the time to pu the cover on.

What your refering to is called the "boot". It does have a finished look when you take the time to put it on. If we are doing "car" things, (rally,daytrips,visiting friends or family) I will put it on, it looks better. Takes about a minute to put on and about a minute to take off. If I'm going to work or running to to the store or just returning home and want the top down to where I can put it up in a few seconds, I dont put the boot on. All in all I use it about 50% of the time. It's a nice finishing touch and would suggest every vert owner to have one.

My car spends a lot of time with the top down, and I am very thankful that I have the boot. I like the way the top looks down, but the boot looks even nicer, very clean.

Heh..your boot isn't on in the pic ^ [8D]

It's not in my sig photo either--but I do like to use it when I wish to add that "extra touch"...it was in my car when I bought it, and I'm actually glad it was.

I use it about 20% of the time--but glad I have it when I want it!

I have the boot.

It looks considerably cleaner and more "finished" with the boot on, and the boot isn't a lot of trouble to install once you get the hang of it.

I run with JUST the top on my daily runs. But.. anytime I do a car show.. or I know for certain the top will be down ALL DAY!, then I put the boot on just because it looks nicer.
