Do water drains for the channels have to be added? Where does water go when it gets in there?

Nice work! I like your blade solution. The skinnier blades wander all over the place with that saw.

There are no drains on the OG ragtops. I guess you're supposed to shut it close while raining or before washing your car Wink

Sorry about the delay, now in paint. Soon, off for upholstery Cool As you can see, all internal supports are present and accounted for. Thanks to Jason for the graft and Rob for taking on the paint work.....

Black seems a little obvious, so probably a matching red to tie it to the red leather interior. I've got to decide soon as you can see Laughing

It would be nice if they could match something similar to the color of the car...

You know, there's a time for blending and a time for contrast.
I think the contrast of that red would be killer.
Especially if it matches the interior theme.
