jeff - looks like a zeintop copy. if so, it attaches just like the oem hardtop and takes about as long to install/remove. the soft top stays in place, you just have to remove the tonneau cover (six bolts) and rear trunk lid (four bolts). ducati - watch where the inner and outer shells meet along the bottom edge - the flexing of the car while attached can cause these to separate.

looks fantastic - they look best on arctic silver I think.

To be honoust, the Cayman bottom price for a used car in the Netherlands is about 25.000 euro. Excluding the costs for optimizing minor defects

The difference (cheaper option) between my boxster including the new hardtop is still more or less 10.000 euro in my favour.
Besides that, I know my boxster is technically okay, what about buying another Cayman without being very sure the car is technically okay (in spite of an examination by a Porsche specialist).

The costs of the hardtop is about 2500 Euro, excluding glass, rubber, locks, brakelight painting, placing the top. In fact these items are not necessary, if you want these things to do it yourself....
The "rough"top is in stock, but just a small numbers. I really dont know if he/the customer is willing to ship the top. Everything has its price of course.
On my request, the inside was painted black without carpeting. And it really looks awesome

If you have more questions, of course I wanna help you as good as I can

greetings John


And last but not least, having a softtop including a very nice hardtop....for me it's best of both worlds

Bye for now

Thanks
