I am disappointed with the amount of the white side rails showing after
installation of my new Heritage Everflex top. The drivers side is less
than the passengers side, but neither is acceptable. I have measured
from the top seam to the side rain gutters perpendicular to the point
where the two side rails meet and they seem almost equal at about 7
inches. I don't see how installation technique would affect this (it
would be more a matter of bow damage).
It seems to me that another 3/8 to 1/2 inch on each side of Everflex
would have well covered the white. I presume this will only get worse
with age as the top shrinks. I am going to ask the installer to try to
glue or somehow apply another strip of Everflex below the rain gutter to
cover the white. Anyone else observed this?
