    Hi, guys.

    After reading about user EastMemphis's hardtop, I was interested.

    I have been working on making a removable targa top for my 360 Spider after a few repair visits to fix the hydraulic cylinders in the cloth top.

    There are 2 targa top pieces in the middle which can be stored in the trunk. The rear piece is fixed into the capote(no drilling) and does not fit in the trunk.

    I scanned the car and 3D printed the top. I'm attaching renderings of what it's going to look like. (My car is black. And, yes, those are 488 GTB wheels :))

    I have already contracted a manufacturer to produce 100 units. They have the original 3D print and are making molds. The material will be fiberglass. There are a few rubber seals and a bit of silicone to keep everything as water resistant as possible. The top clips into the locks at the top of the windshield and has rubber mounts that wedge into the rear capote. The glass is lexan. It looks awesome, in my opinion.

    PM me if you need more info.

    Excellent! I had hoped someone would beat me to it so I can put that project into the grave.

    I'm curious as to how you handled the variation in window height that the Spider has. On my car, the difference between the left and right side was more than 3cm. I've found a similar discrepancy on other cars but it isn't constant. It seems to be a function of a handmade car more than a manufacturing defect.

    My car has a difference of an inch, and the workaround seems to be thicker weatherstrips. So, if someone has the issue, they can just swap out the seal.

    The fastest I've been was 150mph. No issues.
