The Zeintop mimics the Cayman. Why hasnt anyone created a Spyder retrofit for the 986/987 Boxster?

Shouldn't be too difficult. The clamshell, rear trunk lid, and a set of humps could be married together for a prototype.

I bet having the top sewn would cost as much as creating the fiberglass part.

But someone should do it. I'd buy it. My top is rarely up and I love my humps but hate having to remove them to raise the top. Snapping on a top to just keep out the rain when needed would be great!

I guess someone could just create a better mousetrap of a set of humps and achieve the same thing, but one smooth lightweight piece of fiberglass sure would look great!

Thoughts?
