Oh no! I hope the soon to be installed patch in your top fits in well with the rest of the car's patina.

Well, it's directly over the back seat so the only people that are going to notice it are semi-truck drivers, so I'm not too bent out of shape about it; I try to avoid roads with too many semi's.
