I bought a beetle hotrod (with detachable hard top) that looks stunning with it's top off. However, the nasty piece of trash that masquerades as a roof is just horrifying.

Yeah, it's the same one. I personally hate the roof, it's this wooden horror with no back window, it's really clumsy. That's why I wanted to toss it for a soft top.
