hood questions about cabby
im going to order a new hood for my cabriolet mk1 but not sure what colour to get.
It is sapphire metallic (grey) and currently has a grey hood with 2 rips in and a black hood cover so was thinking of ordering a black hood? what do you think?
also do you know of any good fitters around Surrey/London area? Dont fancy doing it myself!
Thanks

I only know a good fitter in Cambridge. There was a thread on here a while back covering lots of hood fitters. It might be worth doing a quick search.

I'm sorry I don't have a photo of mine with the navy roof, but it does look quite nice when the roof is up. The car isn't here at the moment (long story, but I'm now driving a Saxo for a week euch). I'll post a pic with the roof up when I get it back late next week if you don't plan on ordering one in that time.

Hi, i had a black mohair and black headlining fitted by Sort-Tops, they were quite helpful, came out to me at work in reading and fitted on site, I'm no expert, but they did a top class job..
their website is www.sort-tops.co.uk and they are based in croydon but only charged me a ?25 call out fee and that was to reading…
