Default Has anyone besides me ordered the smoothline hardtop?

I placed my order back in early Feb. Hoping it will ship soon. Has anyone else ordered one?

At first I didn't like it but it grew on me. Once a get my bonus I might buy one. What did you order? Any extras? And why did you want one? Looks, functionality, etc...

I am going top paint it to match my car. Got it cause my softtop needs replacing so instead I got the hardtop. I should ship next week. Once painted I will post pics.

I'm very interested for pics. What will you do when you go driving without it and you stop somewhere? Put the soft top up or just leave the top off?

This is a play car for me. I will only drive while nice out anyway. This is mainly a winter thing for me.

Ordered one, asked when it would be coming, they haven't replied. Waiting game...
They withdrew 500$ so far. I'd expect better response from smoothline, esp since they took money... a bit shady if you ask me.

I would like one, But honestly, Im a bit skeptical about the company. Never heard of them prior to this and its been a longggg time now since the first post sparking interest in the top with very little content and replies back to people. I feel like they are going to be wayy behind on shipping to people. I hope Im wrong bc I would like to see one painted with clear pics. Those cell phone pics they are using to advertise are also making me weary on the quality.

I'll wait to see everyone else's...

+1, still no reply to emails. I'm going to call them this week... I really hope they are just slow, I don't want to go through a legal process to get $500 bucks back...

I'll wait for someone else to be the guinea pig before I make a decision.

its surprising how they don't really care to see if anyone is talking about their new product, to sort of get an insight of how well the sales will do, and how they don't even reply in these threads (which are prob their biggest market place)

It's just bad PR that is not in their favor.

Well Smoothine call today and said that my hardtop shipped via FedEx Freight. It should be here on Tuesday. As soon as the bodyshop gets around to painting it I will get some pics up for you guys to see.
