Here's another picture of it, although it looks really distorted cause of the two-page spread format.

Hardtop Personal Preferences

I happen to like the OEM style and the Zeintop, but not this one . . . but the shape is just a matter of personal taste. For those like me who like the OEM style, has anyone tried the OEM-imitation fiberglass hardtop from GT Motor Sports (http://www.gtmotorsport.net/index.php?menu=Boxster+Series&page=Hardtop)? I like that top, it's presumably lightweight, not subject to dents, and the price is a lot better than the alternatives.

I don't see the difference between that GT motorsports one and the OEM?

Me neither -- it IS just like the OEM, but that's why I like it (I realize others' opinions will differ on this). I'm just wondering what the quality is like. If the quality is equal to the original, that seems like a good alternative due to being lighter and dent-resistant. But I'm reluctant to lay down even $1100 not knowing what I'm getting, and no, I haven't found any other photos, either.
