Default T TOP Area

I just completed a t-top conversion to my 99 TA. Can anyone give me advice how to smooth out the area between the windshield, and t-top area?

if you are talking about the front where the little ridge is by the front windshield you need to use some sort of bondo or a flexible one like dyno-de light. its just like bondo but it flexs so you wont see any cracks.

Heh. I used that stuff before reading your reply. It looks pretty good, I just have to wait for it to cure before I prime and paint it. It doesn't matter really if its perfect, because I plan on getting a new paint job done within 6 months or so, so Im sure the body shop can smooth it out some more. Thanks.
