    WTB: suspension for a vert, black soft top and some interior pieces.

    Looking for shocks, springs, coilovers, etc. Will also possibly look at 5-lug swaps, the more complete the better.

    Must be in good, low mileage to new condition, no beat up crap, mmkay?

    It's a street car, not looking for anything racey.

    H&R sports
    Eibach
    Ground Control
    etc.

    Also would be interested in a small mtech 2 wheel, new black hardtop headliner, black soft top, us plate filler, new euro bumper trim and nice shift knob.

    Whaddya got?

    edit, I have an oem windscreen with a small hole with bag to potentially trade.

    I have a brand new US plate filler for your year.
    It won't work for me.

    I have a momo anatomic I've been thinking of passing along to someone.
    Check those out and see if you like them. I'll have to measure if it's the short or tall version.

    If you have a hard top my advice is to just completely remove the soft top. It's about 70 pounds. After I took mine out, my cabrio sits much better on my H&R springs. The tonneau cover is another 20-30 pounds depending on how accurate my bathroom scale is. I'm thinking of fabricating a custom cover so I can ditch that too. It's less than the weight of a rear seat passenger but whatever the reason, maybe where the weight is located, it handles much better and sits nicer without the weight.

    I put a car cover where the soft top used to be and pull it out if I'm ever caught in the rain. But being in Eugene means you'll only likely pull the hard top off about 2 months per year :)

    That windscreen cost me about about $480 when I bought it new from the dealer in Medford. Saved me about 50 dollars in California taxes. The mesh can be replaced. I don't know if the aftermarket screens have replaceable mesh. I've not seen them sold for less than $300 dollars with the bag in the condition you described.

    I looked for used euro bumper trim for years. I finally sourced a clean set and paid the guy over in UK but he ripped me off and never sent the parts. I dropped from the scene kind of in disgust and let my cabrio rot in the driveway. Few years back, when I started to walk through my undone projects, I got in contact with a guy named Levent from gutenparts. I think his forum name here is ZM Blue Devil. He's one of the best people I know for some of the stuff you're asking to buy.
    Das ist nicht nur nicht richtig, es ist nicht einmal falsch!
