Tops r us
 
FNG here, I've been searching the net, trying to find out where to buy a color matching top for my torch red C5. I've only got the clear/smoke colored top. I'm kinda afraid to find out because of the cost, I'm sure it's in the 'space shuttle' price range. Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks

They occassionally can be found here in the for-sale section from ~$400 up, depending on condition. It'll take a little longer if you want a TR one rather than taking one that's a different color and having it painted.

Welcome and best of luck. :cheers:

eBay is a pretty good source as well.
Good luck in your search.

there is a brand new torch red never used on ebay right now
sounds like a great deal
Auction ends tomorrow
Start price $ 399.
go to www.ebay.com
in search box type: 7977399499
if you dont want to buy through ebay, contact the seller anyway you can and work out the sale before auction ends and then he will cancel his listing. Good luck !

Mine is for sale, make me an offer. It's never been used.

luvmy82 06-05-2005 05:56 PM

I forgot to add that this top is from an '00 Torch Red coupe that I purchased in February 05 and as I said, it's never been used and in perfect condition. Let me know if you want pix....

Sounds like you've got some great deals right here. I'd take 'em up on it, particularly the one from luvmy82. Always buy from one of your forum buddies if you can work a deal.

But if you can't, you can also contact one of our forum sponsors, "Gene's Karshop" (site at bottom on left). I got one from him and had it painted. Got a decent price from him.

Welcome to the forum.

Best of luck on the roof panel.

I'd buy from a fellow forum member before resorting to eBay. Just my experience. Good luck! :cheers:

o matter who you buy it from, I have seen several posts about them being damaged during shipping. If you can pick one up rather than have one shipped, it would sound like a safer way to go.

FNG!!!!! No need to degrade yourself like that brutha!! In fact, report to the DMZ!!! :lol: j/k

You can try Mid America, but to answer your question: Yes! They're fairly expensive..to the point where you can have a nice mod done to enhance the performance rather than the look...Your call my man! Keep your head up out there!!!!!

Check the for sale section of the forum - they pop up every now and then in that color. Just remember that there may be a slight color variation in any top you buy.
