When I sold my NB8A, I separated the colour-coded hardtop to make the price more attractive.
A black hardtop will appeal to most people as an item on its own. Can easily get $800 for a black one.

Just in discussions with my Uncle about making a carbon top....
It looks like its giong to be WAY too much work for a 1 off... but if i can do it for the right price it still might be worth while.
i just cant justify 2,300 for one
alternativley i might go 1,500 for a OEM one (including a respray to titanium)
Why reinvent the wheel when lightyear has done all the work for you ...

Fair enough then. Best of luck if you do go down that route.
Haha, I agree with Joe here, Best of luck if you think it is that simple.
