Hello
Perdon por mi espanol pobre, pero me voy a explicar en ingles
I drive a white nbc with red leather and red top, but my top cover is black
SO when I drive with top down, you see white car, with red leather, and black cover.
That is not very beautiful.
I don't understand why I don't have a red cover to match it all.
A friend of the belgian forum has a black nbc with red leather and black top, ans she has a red cover???
So, I am looking for a red cover.
Someone knows one for sale? Maybe even swap?
Original at VW is 700 euro
Wanted : Red Top Cover

Re: Wanted : Red Top Cover
Hi Tommy, I know your issue.
In Spain was bought the "Red Edition" version, a black pearl with red cover and red leather seats, the same as you. The top cover, unfortunately, is black, not red.
Did you try a "Hand Made" option? You can try to go to a leather specialist, with the original one, and he could COPY it in red leather. I think this option is cheapest than the VW original one...
In Spain, is impossible to buy a NB with your colour combination, only black, grey or cream cover is available. No red is available, only in the Red Edition version.
Good luck!

Re: Wanted : Red Top Cover
Yes, I'm afraid that is the only solution.
Well, I don't know if Chili is a Limited Red Edition.
He has all the features of one, and comes from Italy, where the LRE was also available (in white).
On the invoice it's also mentionned Red Edition, but I dont have the LRE badge on the trunk.

Unfortunately, is an american edition... but, as you can see, the RED COVER is possible!
