Targa Fiberglass Top
Looking for advice on whether to go with a fiberglass top or have the vinyl top rebuilt. Question is will the fiberglass reduce the wind noise and the issues that come with the folding top?

With proper fit and good seals, there really shouldn't be signficant wind noise or leaks with the factory folding top. I would guess that the aftermarket fiberglass would not be as quiet (unless it's well insulated). With less than perfect seals, wind noise and leaks probably wouldn't be better.

Tim,
I am strongly considering a fiberglass top as well. Not for noise reduction. I drive the car top-less in good weather and would like to have the top painted white to match the bar and wheels as well as the body.
