Default Besttop soft top
Ok so I have a 2008 jk wrangler 2 door and I bought a besttop replace a top and installed it about 2-3 months ago... So my question is my back window still looks horrible like all wrinkled and wavey if you know what I mean...
So I was wondering if there was anything I could do about this?!?!

All the wrinkles should work out as it sits in the sun. Keep everything tight for a few days and you should be good.

Hmm is everything nice and tight? I mean after you installed it. My window did the same thing but I had the inner back strap rolled on to it self rather than it laying flat but that was on my oem top.

Have you tried taking a hairdryer and heating it up to see if it smooths out any? Just a thought...

No what about a heat gun?

That might work also, I'd just be careful not to apply too much heat. Also, I didn't know if you had a heat gun, not everyone does!
