      So the question is this... have the hardtop rewrapped or painted instead?
      Paint it. This won't be the last time that something sticky/hard to remove falls on it.

          Too late.

          I dropped it off a couple of days ago to get rewrapped.

            I had images of BumbleBee dangling your car 80ft in the air by the drive shaft.

            Anyway.. seems shitty your insurance has to pay. Was it parked on public or private property. If on public property sue the city, if on private property, sue the city and the landowner.

            Yeah.. Im a lawyer.

                Unfortunately no. This was my other vert that got dripped on.

                I'm still waiting for the stainless steel bolts to arrive from Germany to put the wheels back together.

                  In reality, I'm very sorry to see what happened. I thought a littli razzing was in order though. Best of luck with the procedure to resolve it.


                  Oh, and BTW, why cant you have them overnight bolts from Japan?

                    I broke a grin when I read the razz.

                    It does make me sick to know that a mint factory hardtop is going to be stripped just to fix the problem. I do plan to have the headliner replaced at the same time so there is a bit of a positive spin on all of this.

                    As for the bolts the only place I know of that sells m7x32 stainless bolts is Pertsch & Partner in Germany.

                      I figure you know where to get bolts, it was a F&tF joke.

                            that sucks. i know i'm late to the game, but i would have voted paint body-color; if i find a hardtop that's the route i plan to take.
