Hi,

I have that too and it may be a symptom of leaving the Top down, I don't know or care. My Top is down 99.9% of the Time, don't drive in weather, so only Up for washes, occasional service to the trop of the engine, and when I store it for the season.

There's probably some benefit to having it Up occasionally like spreading the Lube in the Top Transmissions and Cables. Maybe it will avoid the sharp creases as well.

But, Mine is always DOWN and the sharp creases are unseen. If the Top is UP for any apreciable length of time, I notice they do tend to disappear...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
