Unhappy Bad Day...

The wind caught my hardtop while removing it today, shattered the rear window and messed up the hardtop a little. I have 720 miles on it, I'm really bummed.

Two questions:

1. What paint can I use to touch up the paint?

2. What's the best way to remove the top without having to worry that I'll break it, looking for a low cost, easy removal.

if you have a garage you can get a hoist.

I'm sorry to hear that. Never heard of that happening before... On a sidenote, that glass will be extremely expansive to replace. I hope your insurance covers it.
