Ok so I have continued with the fitment process and I am getting closer and closer to getting everything to line up correctly!
You can see here how everything is leveling out nicely!  The only thing that is off right now is the rear but not by much!  One thing that I am doing is flattening everything down with a flat chisel I've gone all the way around...   I've used the clamps to position the top and I make my adjustments from there!  So anyway I've been working on the front piece this afternoon...and I think I am going to remove the windshield strip (I might have to replace it anyway) because it's a little hard to fold it down and work it out of the way! But I've got it going a bit! You can see it start to settle down...  The middle part is the one that I am having a little trouble with, but I think I know how to fix it, which is what I am going to do as soon as I get this update done   Pretty much the key to getting everything to fit nice and snug is to carefully grind down what needs to be ground down, and to use a nice flat head chisel... Take your time. step back and try to think ahead don't forget about the next steps.

Nice update. It seems to be coming together very nicely. Does the glass on those top have the bronze tint on it like a lot of other glass from Japan?

Alright so here are the last shots of the day! I'm beat!
 But I finally got it all done!! Everything is where it needs to be! As you can see, I am def going to need a new weather strip because this one got a little tore up!  These things are real easy to mess up!   What I like is that I was able to get the whole roof to sit nice and low without the use of clamps! The way you see it right now on the pictures is how it sits without any bracing or anything to hold it down! So I am pretty sure that once I put the clamps on it will sit a bit lower as well! And a top view of my masterpiece!!!   Tomorrow I remove everything and start prep for the adhesive! I will be prepping all the surfaces by grinding everything down, and fixing the little rust spot on the front windshield!

good work marlon.. dont u thnk removing the windshield sealer would be easier to align the glasstop plus to seal any spots between the glasstop piece and the roof of the car so rust won't grow and end up ruining the car from the inside? thats just my opinion cuz i fixed my roof on one my EF's before and i didnt removed the windshield sealer at all and about a year later rust started to bubble under the sealer.
