Default Help needed: Tonneau cover, mini tonneau, boot?

I am looking for either a hard tonneau cover, ford mini tonneau, or convertible boot for a 2004 convert. Any experience or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. With the hard tonneau what does it cost to paint? With the ford mini how easy is the install? Do you have to alter the body?

Thanks in advance for the help.

i have the mini tonneau on my 94 convertible. it only takes about 10 mins to install, all you have to do is take about 8-9 screws out of the back trim molding, and replace them with button screws, after that it just snaps on the buttons, under the molding on the sides, in the hole where the seatbelt come out, and put flaps under the rear seat. i use it as extra storage too, you can put stuff under there, and all you have to do it get to it is pull the flaps from under the seat and flip the cover up. i love mine, i got it for i think about $80 shipped off ebay. this is the pic of the one i bought and it looks just like it.

Hey i have been starting to do some research on the hard tonneau cover myself and i been trying to find a dealer with a stang that i can go look at with one. Preferable a saleen but doesnt matter too much. I dealer sold the car just before i could get there.
I never hard about the ford mini cover. What is that all about. what is it made from?? I was thinking about the cervini's tanneau cover because its 2 piece and it would fit in the trunk if need be. Which that would help alot for me.
As for the paint cost it depends on the cover. is it new, does it need prep, ect. Cause if you get a used cover and it isnt factory painted(like saleen) It would be best to stip the old paint off cause you dont know what jumk other people put on it. Also depends on the place you bring it too. You pay for what ya get.
