Looks great! I think reading through hundreds of self-glued threads on forum and facebook we can come to an accurate conclusion. What the individual does with that information is entirely up to each of them. I like my car, I want to keep it as nice and presentable as possible. Yes, expenses can add up but that is what you signed up for when purchasing a 18 year old Roadster with a soft top. To me (and again, that's just me) the time and effort as well as money put into gluing the top and then taking the chance that water will still enter you trunk and ruin your electronics would not be worth it to me. OR the chance that I will have to re-do it in a few weeks. New tops make old cars look brand new people
