Looks nice! Congrates on doing it yourself. I'm the same way. I do everything to my car myself.

nice job man, all you need to do is do a litte stretching on the bottom, pull the fabric where the litte half windows are down and tight with the top up, there should be screws where you can take out some slack, make it tight with (like take up 1" andd then rescrew it.. then the top will have a little trouble closing - THIS NORMAL, let the top stretch over night or force down a little and close it. Then leave it closed for about a week and youll get that factory tightness in the top back , otherwise great job man, your almost there

thanks. yea there is a hole in my hood i had a piece of plexie glass there so you can see in but the apoxy gave way... it might let the hot air get out faster but not good to drive in the rain with the hole there will get alot of water on spark plugs and coil packs.

Awesome job! Planning on doing mine here shortly. Also planning on getting top on Ebay...going for a cloth top though. Are you satisfied with the quality? Any further advice?
