Default Found staples pulled out...

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone has had any problems with the back bow just before the rear window. I noticed today when I shut my pass door that the top of the door glass is catching on theconvertible top. I have owned the car only about two months I am sure it was not doing that before. It does not hit on the drivers side. Anyway that promted me to examine the roof and I noticed that when looking at the back bow from outside something looked all crooked under the material. I ran my hand up under the top material at the top of the back glass and found it pulled apart and several staples just hanging inside. Any recommendations. I plan on taking it monday to a company that works on convertibles and have them fix it. Wondering if the door glass hitting the roof has anything to do with the back bow issue or should I look at something else.

Its a 2003 Cobra if that makes a difference. Thanks Daniel

Being that new of a car, I would not think the top has been replaced, meaning the staples used were too short. How tight are the seals? If you shut the door, can you watch the top expand slightly?
