The Evo Carrier looks good, but the Knuckles would look even better with your fastback top. I have seen a few Knuckles in person and they are very nice. As an added bonus Knuckles is based out of Cleveland, GA so you would be buying local.

I'd go with the Knuckles...Got a chance to see one of these in person about two weeks ago and it's a serious piece of work. If you have an angled soft top it looks even more awesome.

I like the EVO, but not to big of a fan of their corners that they require you to run with the carrier. I chose the genright alloy for the weight, and how close to the body it mounts the wheel/tire.
I have a slant top as well. The knuckles carrier looks nice, just haven't seen enough of it to say I love it
