Default Hard Top

I have a 2000 formula with the hardtop and the paint is wavey and bubbling, GM knew this was a problem with the adhesive they used on the car, but my car is out of warranty and GM had no advice for me, thanks GM. I had the local body shop strip the roof and paint it but believe this, the paint job lasted all of 3 hours before the problem started again, at least the shop gave me my money back. Does anyone know how to fix this problem and how much it will cost me? J

Thanks very much for your help, it looks like a lot of hard work and I know a body shop would cost way too much. I have a guy in the south that put a canvas top on his but I just don't think that would look good. J

Yea that's too Mullet style for me. Show your bodyshop that thread and see how much they would charge. Call around I'm sure there is a bodyshop that has replaced these parts before
