Yea, that could be the place...The guy that told me about it was talking about headliners for sunroof cars at the time....Might be worth a phone call to see if they can do a vinyl top too ?

OKAY  Here we go, my top arrived today, 221 days after being ordered, only 31.5 weeks on a 4-5 week promise

But I lined up a threesome for Dan @6bblgt who was asking about the colour of my original sample....
Here it goes, my OEM sample, the section that was folded under on the sunroof panel of the 70 Challenger I'm working on...This area would have never been exposed to sunlight. My Legendary Auto Interior sample I bought thinking it was a wide seam (for sale by the way) and my new sample of SMS's ...you be the judge....

This is just under normal household lights in my office

Congrats! In my eyes SMS looks much closer to your OE sample.

I would agree.  Being colored I am sure there is lot variation and the SMS is close enough

I agree SMS looks the closes. I'm glad Legendary didn't make the wide seam and I went with SMS just wish they were easier to get along with.

Yea I agree, hard to believe they are still in business, but I guess if they have what people need, then they can run their business however they like

Just got email my top is being shipped should be delivered next week. Have either of you installed your new tops? Just wondered if they look right installed and if you had any issues.

[RUNCHARGER]

That SMS looks pretty good I think.

Aiming for mid-February installation

Got my top and laid it on top of my car. Have a couple of questions if anyone can answer. Does anyone know the distance between seams on front and back? Also back window not cut out maybe that's normal. But the pieces that go down the A pillar are missing anyone elses like that. I also have approx. 11/4" by 6 to 8" area by the seam that is flat. I don't know if they iron the seams and it got on the top but it definitely stands out. Besides that they ended up charging $649 plus another $35 for shipping. To say the least I'm a little pissed off! Any info you can share about dimensions and A pillar pieces would be appreciated. I think it's too wide in the front. Calling them tomorrow.

@F8RT I just read your post tonight and went and laid mine out for the first time. (benefit of having my shop at my house) Has a nice contrast to the FF4 green paint.

Mine looks good, it will take a bit of effort to get the wrinkles out, but there doesn't seem to be any puckering along the seam which is a common issue with tops. Mine definitely has the "A" pillar pieces attached and also no rear window opening....This is important for avoiding having an "extra seam" below the window as Sheldon dealt with.

Mine is tentatively going to be installed on the 16th of this month.

Thanks for getting back so quickly. If you get a chance to measure the distance between seams I would really appreciate it. I'm 50" in the front which doesn't look right to me. When they start stretching out wrinkles I think it will be in the curve of the window. Here are pics of mine the seams look really flat compared to my original but it was really old. The one picture shows the flat spot on the top. I think you can see it. I like the color the backing material is not as heavy as the sample they sent but looks good with the dark green. I'm just really disappointed they would send it to me without the A pillar pieces. And I payed quit a bit more.  Hopefully no problem getting it replaced other than time.

[F8RT]

Does your seam look that flat? Just looks strange now I'm looking at picture I sent, maybe I'm too picky.

[F8RT]

I do like the color contrast on yours but I think it looks good on mine also.
