WTB Zeintop / Z-top for 986

[CharlesE]

I'm looking for one of those cayman style hardtops that used to be made called Zeintops. Doing my research it looks like the originals aren't being made anymore but replicas were being made and sold directly from china. I could only find it for sale on 2 websites does anyone in here have one?

I do. The company that makes them now bought out the bankrupt Zientop. I'm not sure but I think they are all made by Z-art now and sold by numerous sellers. The least expensive Alliexpress. The only US distributor sells on ebay and asks $9995.

Okay thanks. I guess I'll get one from Alliexpress unless I find a normal hardtop near me. Did you install yours yourself or take it to a bodyshop?

I trimmed out mine myself, wasnt hard, but I've heard the newest ones dont need any fitting. Had a BS paint it. Not sure if that's true or not.
