Then where do you find them? Pay massive amounts of money for the rare, used ones?

Dang it.... They're so cool.... I'm not a fan of hardtops unless they're more than just the simple bubble top (like all of them... lol). Any other companies make custom hard tops?

EDIT:

I FOUND IT!!!

Thats their facebook page, as i dont believe they have a real website. Company is Z-Art Automotive and they make custom porsche hardtops, side vents, body kits, etc. BUT! They have the same hardtop that zeintec offered and I was told they are actually the same company, just relocated from South Africa, to Canada!

Any company manufacturing has a web site or easy to find contact information. That is rule one in 2012 global marketing. I haven't seen any evidence of these tops being made for 2 years or maybe more. They are extremely good looking tops but the reality is that people buy Boxsters because they are convertibles. Therefore, few of us use hardtops of any kind and there is a cheaper alternative (albeit not as attractive) so the market is extremely small causing the price for something like this to remain at almost one-off pricing. Even finding a used one is very difficult. If I was going to put a lid on my Boxster, that would be the one.

Oh really? You think they're out of business too? Hmmm... Alright. I emailed them anyways looking for a price :P

They are great looking though.
