looks like the GG exige has a 2nd grill with the top off.

Removing the Hard top (using soft top)
Hi There
I've driven my Exige without the hard top. It's grat. I also bought the soft top (from england), I'll have it next week. Then I just have to wait for the summer. |

Here are a couple of pics I saw on the forum a long time ago. Top off and soft top on. Both are great looks - IMO

holy three year old threads batman!!
i don't know why they simply didn't put the convertible top "notches" on the exige. and what's with all the "boogey man will come get you if you take the top off" nonsense in the owners manual?

Not sure about over in the US but removing your roof in the UK will void certain parts of the warranty..
Also - if you don't tell your insurance company that you have made it into a convertible they can knock you back on a claim if you have an accident. Which has happened over here. Looks good though  |

This was a fun day...
Oh the Blue Ridge Parkway..... This was taken after a crazy run on Shulls Mill Rd. Very well paved, rarely occupied, and very tight corners, ie rock faces give little room for error. Good times. Any of you NC owners ever want to make a group run up that way, let me know.

The car is AMAZING to drive with the top off...do it! I carry the torx bit in my car so I can remove it at various places should I want to, and can store the top somewhere!!!
Andyes, I've seen a thread (web site) somewhere giving a tutorial on adding the rear grommets to the Exige, it's just a little drilling, seemed to be easy enough if you have the balls to take a drill to your car.  |
