Yeah, I'm fond of the CR also. It was a poor quality respray of a factory white (I think) roof, and clearcoat has failed... so it's gonna need...

Thanks! It probably won't stay red for long, though I kinda like it too. But GPs have silver roofs...

Halfway made half a roof for it.

So last year I fabbed a prototype "bikini" top for the GP Roadster. It was quite effective, and kept me and passengers mostly dry during a...
