Unhappy Top Vandalism & Replacement

A piece of sh*t that doesn't deserve to inhabit the earth, attempted to break into my vehicle last night, but was stopped when a neighbor chased him away.
The top is scuffed & there's a puncture about the size of a pinky fingernail now. Is it possible to only replace the cloth?
Since the work needs to be done, I'd like to get a red top to match the Adrenaline Red interior.
Thanks in advance for your guidance.

argh.... That sucks... probably some kids thinking it was going to be some easy score.. hence, I keep everything out of sight..

As for the red top.... I've got the same car and never really thought about red... but, while it would match the interior, I think it would be too much. Maybe some red accents though...

That really sucks. Makes me sad that people work hard to buy nice things while other scum bags decide they want it for free and just take it.

What a low life! Sorry some asshole did that to your car!
As far as a red top. You would have to have one custom made. I suggest starting by googling upholstery shops that can make convertible tops. I would guess, they would need to remove your top to custom sew and fit a red top.
Probably would not be a fast project.

Thieves are the worst kind of trash. Sorry to hear they damaged your car. I know you keep it in great condition. I've mentioned before that I like the commemorative editions. Good luck with the repairs.

I truly appreciate your & everyone's empathy.

I feel red on white would look great & make for an even more old school appearance.

Sorry to hear of the vandal messing up your top. Based on the Vette pics, be prepared that Camaro top is bigger in comparison.

I could only pray that I caught someone in the very act of vandalizing my car. It would be the very last one they did for quite some time. They would start wetting them selves as I prayed out loud, "Father in Heaven please forgive me for what I am about to do"!

I second this....I would be there in a flash with my 40cal or 1 of my 9mm(all legal and I have a CCW) with 1 in the chamber.
