Let's see your Boxster with a hardtop. Whatever hardtop, factory our aftermarket, post it here.

Here's my recently rebadged 2004 in Carmon red. I like the look the hardtop gives the car so much that I keep it on most of the time.

For those of us looking to buy a hardtop where is the best place to look and buy? When I do find one on ebay seems nobody is willing to ship. I've wanted a hardtop for a while but am having a lot of trouble finding a nice used one in my area and I'm definetely not going to the dealership-I'm looking for an arctic silver or black one

I could find hardtops but all far away and most did not want to deal with shipping. When I checked into shipping Greyhound was the only reasonably priced option but you need a seller willing to play and you have to go pick it up at a Greyhound.

In terms of finding them I looked to ebay, craigslist, Excellence, Panorama and this forum.

I ended up finding one in SoCal in the color I wanted (no repainting costs and hassle!) with a cover, stand and the seller was wiling to deliver it to me for a price that made sense for me.

Don't forget you will need spin locks and don't forget to ask about the three plastic covers.

Good luck.

Here's mine. 2001 Seal Grey with Artic Silver top (just got top yesterday, will eventually have it painted to match the body, I think)

cbbepop: can you please post close-up pictures of your ZeinWing? I have mine painted and ready to install, but I was worried about screwing the baseplate into the bumper.

Tips
 
Mine comes back from being painted in a couple of days. It didnt come with the car and I had it on to take it to the shop. I had to fiddle with lock lever plate screws to get them to lock. Any tips on doing the adjustment ? The guy I bought it from didnt know. He also said to put a light film of car wax on the rubber seal to have it adhere better ?

Wow. Looks great! Like a mini-911 Turbo.

It makes me want lots more details, though. Is it built over the stock top, or from scratch? What kind of window did you use? How do you open it? Why did you cover up the spoiler? (You never drive over 70mph?)

Thanks Silver! Built from scratch over the stock top and trunk, window is from a 2002 911. I converted my Box to all electric drive 5 yrs ago so I have no oil or maintenance issues so no need to open on a regular basis. Easy to remove though if I need to. Although not quite as quick as when it was gas, it will do well over 100mph. I needed the spoiler area for rear attachments.
