1) Has anyone done a vinyl top delete, but kept the trim (maybe not the same G-bdoy trim, but some sort of trim) in place? Is it doable? Basically if you think back to the 60's, the cutlass and camaro comes to mind with its painted roof. I want to know if its possible to do something similar and keep the trim. I realize there are gaps and they would need to be filled, but thats a fixable problem.
2) The second question is about the rivets that are left behind. If i removed the top and left the rivets, are they waterproof? Meaning, are the ends closed? If they were not closed, then the little hole in the center is basically open, and that would make them leaky. Reason being, i want to get the top off my car to prevent damage to the sheet metal, but may not get to the rivets for another year. But at the same time i dont want it to leak.
