I'd you like dove blue, I'd totally do it. I'd dye the running board mats and fender beading to match too. A dove blue everywhere ragtop would be awesome

That sure make a difference. Just don't get the urge to hang it on the roof before the headliner. A bunch of people have done it and it always falls off when the car sits in the texas sun. I put it in my oval on the floor pans, on the package tray, a piece in each door and the little area just behind the door. It realy made the car quieter and feel more solid.

Yup, had it on my roof for a month. Fell off and had to remove the headliner and take it off. The heat melts it and falls off.

I am wondering if there is some installer error. I have used it on every car I have owned and have not had it fall off yet. Even put it on my bus roof and I had it for 14 yrs and it did not fall off. Maybe you guys did not prep the roof properly.

You might be right, all I did was wipe it down to get the dust off. Probably shoulda cleaned it off a little better. Also, the stuff I used was called Road Blocker or something like that.
