yeah, i think someone needs to borrow and install some speed humps, then take a mold of the humps, clamshell and rear trunk lid. create a one-piece panel that fastens at the spinlocks and rear trunk release. it would be light (even lighter if you do a roof delete) and have no seams and overlaps like the three pieces it was made from (in another thread a person noted that the aftermarket porsche speed humps look like 'fish scales' when installed over the other panels).
a lightweight roof could tuck-in underneath, made from the stock roof front attachment, some canvas, a tent pole 'hoop' and a couple of tensioning points on the new back panel. you could even forego the rear window if you have the rear wind deflector option (think of it more as a bimini top than a complete top *** edit to add another idea - build the wind deflector into the rear panel between the speed humps - this way when the bimini is up less water would get into the cockpit ***).
a poor man's spyder kit. perhaps even have a carbon fibre option for the panel and sell with a CF hood - lighter and no need to paint?
