Car owners choose convertibles in the first place to be among an elite class of driver. They are not satisfied with a "me too" automobile. When they drive the convertible off the lot it attracts admiring glances. However, as convertible tops age, like everything else, they get soiled or worn and instead of admiring glances they still turn heads, but for a different reason.
So, if the top is damaged or soiled the owner feels a need to replace the convertible top but this comes at a price. The price is not only counted in dollars but also in the anxiety about how the finished replacement will look. The good news is that the cost of a replacement is not significant and the quality of the replacement convertible tops available today equals or exceeds the original manufacturer's specifications. In addition, there are advantages to installing a new convertible top.
How can having to pay for a replacement top have a good side? Today, replacement convertible tops can bring a number of benefits to you and to your car. When you read below you will see how often the benefits delivered can outweigh the cost of the new convertible top.
When something is new it can bring benefits but the advantages coming from installing a new convertible top can be surprising. There are many advantages from installing this restyling feature but below I have listed three that would make me go for it.
A major reason would be increased comfort. After installation of a replacement convertible top your driving comfort increases. This is because all mechanisms wear with use and, with the passage of time, your convertible top and supporting mechanism doesn't close properly any more. A loosely fitting top doesn't block highway noise. The other problem is that, if your top doesn't close tightly, dust and moisture can enter your car. A replacement convertible top will act like a new top and restore your car to new car status.
When you opt for a replacement convertible top, regardless your reason for doing so, it allows you to take control of redesigning a very visible and important part of your car's appearance. In fact, it gives you a second chance to change the look of your car. But it's even better. The range of choices available to you from today's aftermarket suppliers is much wider than the choices you had at the dealer when you bought your car. You can select from multiple patterns, from many cloth textures and from a wide range of colors. You have thousands of combinations available to you by combining the patterns, textures and colors in any way you want. This gives you the possibility of creating a convertible top, unique to you. Your convertible top may be unique in all of the USA.
Have you thought that replacing your convertible top could increase the value of your car. If you were to sell your car after you have installed a new convertible top, you would normally expect to get a higher price than if you had sold it with a soiled or damaged top. Often we buy things only to find that they're worth less the next day. Why would a buyer pay the same price for a pre-owned item if he can get the same item at the same price in the store? When you install a replacement convertible top it's probable that the value of your car has increased. If the increase in value is equal to or more than the cost of your installation, you could say your upgrade was free. This is a win-win situation.
Installing a replacement convertible top can have many benefits. These benefits arise from increased driving comfort, possibly increased value and certainly increased pleasure. But think back to why you chose a convertible in the first place; it was to stand out from the crowd, to be different. I guess you're a bit like me. I don't like being a number. We're all numbered in today's society, whether that is a SSN or a number in someone's account book. There is little I can do about those but I want to take any opportunity I can to stand out from the sea of sameness that is our world today. Creating my own, unique convertible top is one small step in that direction.
