I know there is a difference in tops from early to late. My questions can the tops be interchangeable if the internal latches and fasteners are swapped? is it only the latches that make them different or is the structural also different?
Thanks in advance. |

Wurth Schutz is the stuff they used, it's commonly called "rock guard" in body shops, same stuff they spray rockers and stuff with.
I've been scrambling around because my brother in law runs and body shop and they're slow right now so he's offerering to finish mine, I'll let you know what they end up doing. @ahycaramba if you want to smooth it out it can be sanded, you just have to be really careful not go get through the layer under the texture or things get complicated on refurbing and you'd have to possibly re gel coat it. Pretty sure there's some thread on that... |

Mar-Hyde 3811 Black Satin Automotive Trim Coating Aerosol - 12 oz. Great match to original trim paint, in my opinion. Handles bugs and washes on the front bumper, so holds up very well. Of course available on Amazon Thank you very much. I'm going to go bug you in the challenge thread for a picture of the top today.

A slow body shop? Sounds like a recurring dream and a problem I'd love to have. Thank you and I'd love an update when it's done if you can make that happen. |
