Default S2000 car cover fit with mugen hardtop?

Hello fellas. I am sure this is a question many people have and I am curious to know if it will fit before I spend one Benjamin on a cover and soon to find out the hard way.

If it does fit with the mugen top, please let me know if it is snug or too tight and what type of front bumper you have. .

Thanks!

even if a car cover is s2k specific i can't see too much difference in volume between a soft top up and an hardtop, i wouldn't lose sleep over it...

I don't have a Mugen hardtop but it would easily fit under my Covercraft Weathershield. The fit isn't so snug that it couldn't accommodate a hardtop.

The main difference will be the length of the roof because the mugen top goes behind the trim behind the soft top something like an inch adding a bit of height and distance. Probably more volume in the curve of the top as well.

I would think they would make the s2000 car cover (is it OEM?) would be manufactured to fit the OEM hardtop.


In the pictures it seems the Mugen is maybe a little longer than the OEM (hard to tell with that fish bowl window of OEM), I owned a mugen replica so no idea on OEM fitment.
