Nice. Personally, I like the look much more than the cap that comes on the Carmel. Well done!

Very good job! Could you post or send me a pic of your hood stripe? I am getting one next week and am deciding how wide and where,

I had some yellow vinyl wrap left over from another project so I cut a 10" wide stripe from that and added 2  x 1.5" black reflective vinyl stripes on top of that.

That's really nice! It fits the look and lines very well. I also like it better than the stock hard tops.

You should do a "how too". Or possibly take a couple detail pictures of how you attached it to the windshield. I like it and want to do one myself!

If I wanted a top I'd have purchased a Mazda MX5.

How does it behave at speed? Does it catch the wind?
Looks good to me- I like the shape.
