Dog, call Jeff or Carl Lemke (his dad) I know they're pretty busy with Jeff's Beautiful New Invention & put doing the hard tops on the back burner for now. But I know they will still make them in between some of their slow time. He's actually making me one now for my Gen II (because I called him & pretty much begged him to, Lol)! He told me 2-3 weeks, that was a lot sooner than I expected. Super nice guys & to me make the BEST Hard Tops around! jmo

There is one in New York Craigslist for like $1100. The guy said its for a 2007, so my guess is he picked it up used and is not very familiar with vipers. I would love to pick it up, but I have busted my viper mod money this year. I also agree that they look sweet with a hardtop on them.

MattDillon - please post pics of your HT once you get (curious to see it)... can you describe what you're getting (1-piece; trunk top; is it custom)???

Thanks!

I will, I'll have to get it painted (Jeff told me that about 40% of the ones they had painted & shipped before had been roughed (thats ups for you) or nicked here or there & it would probably be better to get it painted when I got it) I was gonna do that anyway cause I've got a real good guy that does all my painting & I knew there could be too many issues with shipping. You can go to their website & see what they look like, its the newest model 3-Piece with the scoop (non-functional) on top. I've NEVER liked the oem tops (look like a bad toupee) on the Gen. II's. BC, the BEST thing about them besides the look is you can put them in your Trunk & take them with you! jmo

It was the rarely mentioned Vipermania hardtop. I almost called earlier (Was on my phone or I would have posted the link), but not sure I liked the style.

 

[Real_Venom]

Wow... have never seen that top talked about on here. hmmm...

 

[mattdillon]

I'd be careful with some of those 2nd hand tops, lately it seems like quite a few on here have been having trouble with getting everything to line up & fit snug! jmo

You may have made up your mind but I really like my Autoform top. Fits great, is quiet, and has more headroom than the stock top. Oh, and did I mention how cool it is over the stock convertible top? Much cooler!

This. Autoform is a really nice top. You just may need to spend some time to figure out where the creaks and squeeks are and fix with foam tape/felt. After that, it's perfect (IMO). Can't tell you how many people have commented on how it really makes the car (Now the GTS Blue with white stripes continues on the roof). Keep in mind that it takes alot longer for them to make these days.

This is by far the best looking top for the gen 3 vipers

Nice... I wonder how would it look like on a red roadster with the black hard top

I imagine a black top on red roadster would look like a Vert with the top up in some lighting.

I bought a used Autoform that came off a red Viper, installed on my black 03.

Where do you order the Autoform hardtop? Does anybody have pic of the Lemke on the Viper?

This top is so much sleeker then the autoform. It makes the car, instead of having what looks like a bubble on your car.

Nice blind spots on all of these roofs...
