Very nice. I'm currently looking for a HT for my 03 S.

Looks great. I think they look better than the tent-like soft top. Mine's a hard top, too. I wish I could tell you what it's like, but I don't know what it's like w/o it. Mine has never been off in the 4 yrs I've had the car. I have a ceiling hoist but have yet to install it. If you get a hoist, I've been told to not leave it hanging as the tops will distort.

Wow, that really looks nice...it is like you have two different cars now.
I have never seen a black one with a black hard top. If I had a black one I would have to get a HT next Winter just because I saw yours.
Congrats...

That's a sweet 99, new top looks great, love the wheels and the litronics. I would really like litronics but price is so high, at least the new bosch ones I've seen.
How's the ride with the 19s, I have 17s on my 2000 'S' and was looking to move up, was told 19's would be too harsh for my 'S'.

The ride is rougher but it is not my every day car.
Yes the top was red. How did you know that?

I love the look and my hard top! Top down or hard top are my favorite modes.

Very nice looking. I'd like to snag a zeintop or zeintop look alike one day. I hear rumors that a couple of other companies are taking the zeintop design and making versions of it for sale for a LOT less. Hope they're true!

By chance do you have additional photographs of your vehicle equipped with the hard top! Nonetheless, she looks great! Sure makes me miss the hard top I had on my Glacier Whie 99!

Your car looks great with the hardtop JAAY!
I love the contrast between the black and the GT Silver on the wheels!
