Something to be said for that. I fitted my tonneau cover and it did take a lot of patience - came out nice, though. And, just to make it harder, I lined the inside of it with felt where it will touch the paint. The vinyl, particularly corners where it is folded and stitched, felt a bit harsh so worth the extra work. I imagine the top will be more difficult to fit. If I recall, ERA wanted $800 to fit it to the car.

Am I reading this right? http://www.erareplicas.com/427/427options.pdf ERA wants almost ten grand for a fitted soft top now?

They may be getting their parts from Ferrari now hence the cost );-)
