I also found out who his supplier is and talked to them. They are no longer ordering the tops from their Hong Kong manufacturer. So, as far as I’ve been able to find, no cayman-style tops available at present.

Who told me on the phone that he’s getting out of importing the tops from Hong Kong and only has the damaged 987 top left in stock. After that’s gone, he’s done.
Sorry your having trouble.
I emailed the Ohio company and got a blow off response. I bought one several years ago, $2600 and never had a problem with the Ohio company. Weird.
Ive dealt with extreme before and never had a problem. He must of bought out their stock. Ad says he has 8 left.
Did you buy one and are wanting to return it?

No, he has none in stock. I ordered one only to find out that he doesn’t have them in stock. I then went on to find out that his supplier, whom I’ve listed, also doesn’t have them in stock and is not getting any more.
And he’s taking his sweet damn time refunding my money too. Been almost a month.

I without mentioning you asked him about the status of the tops. He bought out the Ohio dealer and is going to be the only US supplier. He's waiting on a shipment and will have more soon. The same thing happened on my led taillights. He ran out, I ********************ed, I had to wait but the came when he said. If you end up getting the top and have any questions let me know. I love mine.

PM me. My line of work permits me to engineer correspondence that assures the recipient quickly will remedy the matter. Never have I had a recipient of my "consumer correspondence" fail to pay up. Never.

Thanks, I appreciate that very much. No worries though - I went through PayPal, so if he doesn’t pay, they will take care of me. Although I’m sure he will pay, he’s just being slow about it. :-(
JBauer - pictures and threads here about your top have been an inspiration to me. Hopefully he does eventually get more tops in stock. If so, I may reorder.
I’m planning a track car, so the weight of the top might be an issue. May just go with a spec Boxster fiberglass top. Decisions, decisions...

some of the cali guys on this forum might be able to help you find member eric523; he was making/selling a 986 track top molded from a 996; a search on here will get you pics, etc.

He's stalling.
You're clearly getting scammed. Refund takes 10 seconds.
Look up the Paypal refund claim deadline limit timeframe.
