New Smooth Line Hard Top For Verts
Found this on another forum and thought I would share... definitely a pricey option, but at least they will be making them for our cars.

I would really like to see some more details on how they mount and if there is a risk for rubbing.
And at 65lbs., this would be a bit awkward to install without help.

I'd also be interested, but the introductory price of $1900 + shipping (couple hundred bucks there) and then getting it painted ...
interested, but not that much.

neat idea...but pricey, and SHR louvers wont fit 
'tinted plexiglas' scares me tooo- they shoulda at least used tinted lexan/polycarbonate...plexi spidercracks too easily, and I dont think it handles UV very well either?

Compared to others, such as the Miata top, these really aren't too pricey at all especially considering a limited marketplace. I love that they copied the OEM appearance of the coupe, and could be really nice for people that want to drive their verts in the winter with a bit more insulation and protection.
I do wish they came painted, though.

I think they are pretty sweet. All the looks of a coupe (almost) and all the fun of a vert. 65 lbs would be pretty precarious for one person, though, and the price is pretty steep.

Well, in fairness to Smoothline...their design is probably exactly what Ford would have done if they designed an accessory hardtop for the Mustang 
With yours, Ford mimicked the OEM coupe lines. Smoothline did the exact same thing with this top for the 05-09s.
I want to know where the retractable hardtop vert is! Now THAT would be cool.

Sorry for the picture quality. i have just yesterday evening installed smoothline hard top,
just windows are sticked with a tape only to take a drive to the service shop where they will do the rest. looks great lines and etc. Actually same as the original coupe version not convertible.
Will post when done finially in few days. But already seems to be fine
