Still one of my favorite pics of my car. But off topic, does anyone know where i can get a black top, have been looking to replace the beige.


^I love that picture, it's really excellent.



Actually, I love it so much I kinda want to do something similar to that myself. I love the way the lines in the concrete are so dramatic. Really cool lighting... empty parking garage... very cool indeed.

yeah, the reason the lines stand out so much is from the hdr, i think i took 6 exposures with this. I have a bunch more in this garage, but i think they all got deleted somehow frown.gif
you can get a new top on ebay for 400 ish, just order it black.

or you can get some high quality dye for it, made by (SEM)
I found this old pic of my celi after I fixed the drivers side from being wrecked. This was the good side, now its getting painted

You painting the whole car a different color, or just repainting the same color?

Newbie with first post.

I've got a '97 GT vert and I'm looking for information on the best various canvas convertible tops available. My original is a tan color and I'd like to keep the color stock. Any opinions, pros/cons of any suppliers of tops would be appreciated.

Regards, S-choir.

Stop asking questions to a convertible owner, dude. They're supposed to ask us hatchback owners if our parts fit their cars. laugh.gif
