Top Tearing issue revisited

You may recall my earlier posts to this thread. Haven't heard anything of late, and wondered how Z-U-Later and others who reported early signs of his issue are faring. Z-U...did they ever fully...

I took delivery of my roadster on June 7, and have opened/closed the top about 5 of every 6 days since. I have a small 3/8 inch crease & some discoloration on the driver's side only, but in the same...
