Bringing this back up rather than making a new thread. I was looking at my top yesterday in the rain and found a saggy weak spot.... I guess I will have to strip it down and glass it. I found a really awesome upholstery guy who can redo tops and if he can give me a good price I will just re vinyl it. I am bummed about the sag though :(

Maybe Ill do a 1/2 padded landau top on mine with a nice silver trim strip across the middle and opera lights on the c pillars. It will look just like a Mark VSeat Shocks....I have passed the baton to John Christy from Ninestitch. Email John or Garrett at ninestitch1@gmail.com

Someone say painted hardtop?
I bought mine like this(minus the bike rack), but I would've ended up doing it anyways. I just got lucky the work was done for me.

strip the top material off
sand all the glue off
us filler to fill the 1000s of tiny holes. the top is also wavy so you will need to smooth out all the highs and lows. otherwise when you paint it, it will look terrible.
then primer and paint. leave all the rubber attached and wedge in a rope to old it away from the fiberglass.
the whole job should take about 30 hours.'93 E30 325ic - CURRENT | '99 E36 M3 - SOLD | '94 E34 530i - SOLD
