Just got the hardtop back from the sprayers. Car now parked up and ready for winter. Cannot believe I have only washed this car once since buying it 6 months ago. Still looking nice!


ka-rikey that do look goooood. i better chop chop with my hardtop then - will have the cash next week so on the hunt today methinks. mine had a black surround in some of the earlier pics but is back to silver now (he used plasti-dip) so its good to see what it would be like with a hard top too. nice!

Am I the only one who's changed from hardtop last weekend, to soft top? :D Cant believe you lot are missing out on the clear winter days! Plus, mines more waterproof at the moment with the soft top, due to the window alignments :(

To be fair, I will do tomorrow I think. I'm currently meant to be at work. *cough*. Office messenger set to 'busy' and fiddling. Will do the windows tomorrow maybe. Just out of curiousity (and I know there are threads)...but is your roof rattle free? Or atleast....not hair-pullingly annoying? Part of my choice for soft top atm.

Apparently a bit of electrical tape, or foam, on the brackets ect stops alot of the rattles and squeeks you may get. Thats what I will be doing when I get mine.

Thats exactly what i did to mine. I put thin packing foam between each bracket and it dont squeak at all. i didnt even have to adjust the windows as it fitted nicely.
