Or you could refinish it for much less money.
Worth a try.
Print out the following post and take it to several body shops for estimates.

I tried refinishing it myself. Didn't work out like I planned. Had many spider cracks. The Astrotops site looks like a good option. Any negative feed back from any one dealing with them?
Thanks

May want to put your current top in the for sale section with good pics and clear description of the condition. Someone else may want to have a try at it for a low price.

I used to have a 95 C4... The top got broken so I got an Astro Top. Biggest mistake I ever made. Fit was off and the material used in the top was thicker than stock so it never looked right. Sent it back very unsatisfied and bought a used off. In my opinion I would not use them ever again...
