Check out www.gahh.com or www.cabrioworld.com for pictures. Cabrioworld is a distributor for the manufacturer GAHH. Right now the price at both sites is about $695 but the the the price at GAHH is only temporary until the end of the month and goes back up to $950. A person at a different Porsche forum has reported a successful self install.

There's also the one from BAS International but I think it goes for about $1100.

I don't have any business ties with any of the companies mentioned.

If you can't get anyone to refer a good top shop, GAHH can provide a list of installers in your area via a form at their website.

Man that really sucks. I guess at the very least you were "lucky" (if you can call it that) they didn't take that knife or whatever it was and use it on the paint. Ignorant jerkoffs like that make me sick. If someone vandalized my car I would be so angry I don't know what I'd do. Stuff like this makes me never want to leave my car unattended for long. Best of luck with fixing the top.

Concur w/Adam - that sucks. I try to be conscious of where I park and how long I leave the car, but in the end there's no stopping a determined jerk. May the repair shops be kind -

Sometimes in NY they are the ones that perpetrate the deed. I once had my tires puncture by a kid in the neighborhood he was caught and forced to make restitution. Straight application of Hammarabi's Law. A finger for first offenders would solve the problem.

thanks all...

yeah i try to be conscious of where I park...well lit, "safe" places....

but I guess there is nothing you can do about these things...even in a garage it could happen...

While I am very angry at the damage ( I find myself looking at the cut in my rear view mirror..everytime!!!), I still take comfort in the fact that the boxster is a great car.....I went for hour long ride and felt a lot better...!!!!!
