Also looks much better on your as you have other black detailing such as the side scoops and spoiler so the black hood stands out less. Infact i quite like the orange and black two tone look. anymore photos?

Sorry I don't have any more. I only took that one and some closer ones with a view to sticking it on eBay over the next week or so.

Is that Team Dynamics wheels you have? I was considering a second set of wheels but would have preferred OEMs so that I could just swap a pair at a time rather than a whole set. They do look 8) though.

The Exige looks awful with the soft top on. I love running with the roof off though and you cant fit the hard top in the boot so the soft tops good to have with you when you're out.

The S1 roof wont fit, either will the early S2 long tail roofs. Any of the newer ones will though

If only somebody did something similar to this for the Exige...

The panels could also be removeable and would not take up nearly as much room as the soft top does.. and the overal look of the car would not be affected + no more cold air being funnelled down the back of your neck..

I've had a soft top conversion for nearly 3 years now, and admit that the Exige looks much better with the hard top in place.. hence the car always looks better during the winter months, which is a little irritating.
