OK , I have two NB donor cars options and one is an early (98 - JDM) the other is a 2004 JDM , soft tops are both in great condition but I see some NB cars where the soft top has disintegrated over 8-9 years.

I have also heard that the NB has a lighter top over the NA however my biggest worry is about the top cracking and going brittle in near future , the newer model is nicer looking and has a softer rubbery feel ...

Also the rain rail cracks up on the earlier cars , was this issue fixed on later models?

Please share your experiences.
