You know the windshield is just BLACK tape, and can be removed.... right?

[.::F[L]Y::.]

i actually like the black tape.

[ludecrs]

So do I, I just don't like the clips underneath it in the 2 corners.

[irvinchua]

I'm not aware of any black tape, though I have to admit that I have not checked. I figure, the less I fiddle the less I find I want to spend on the car.

Last time I had a fiddle, I've decided that I need to get a lower driver's seat rail and a hard top. And that's just the beginning.

Whats around your window frame is black tape, on all 99-02? S2000. Peel it off, and underneath is your cars colour, be it NFR, MCB, Silverstone, GPW etc.

[irvinchua]

I kinda like it the way it is. The hardtop will not look out of place if it were sprayed black (or Berlina Black).

However statistically speaking, if I spray it Silverstone, I won't have a problem selling it at a later date seeing 70% of S2000s out there are silver anyhoos. =Þ

just a question guys ... is there any hardtops available that sits above the soft top, so that when the occasion arises the soft top can still be used and the roof can still be reclined?

[ludecrs]

I doubt it since the strickers / latches would already be in use from the roof.

Damn you guys are dumb!

Most hard tops sit over the RETRACTED soft top.

I think Spoon/Mooncraft is the exception and it requires removal of the soft top.

Basically I look at the weather and if it's rainy and doesn't look to be clearing I lower my hard top over my retracted soft top. If it looks like it will clear I put up my soft top. And if it's clear I keep my soft top down.
