that might not work because it would have to move in order for the rag to go down?

...I don't think so...There is already a removable engine cover, and it stays put when the ragtop operates... (And of course, it would only be visible through the rear window when the top is UP)...

To me, the additional noise wouldn't be worth it.

Get a few LED's under there that can't be seen and that would be AWESOME.

Still cool though!
