Default 2011 JKU Soft Top Questions/Help

Ok guys and gals. Yesterday I put the soft top down for the first time. Evidently I did it incorrectly. I did not make the W when the sunrider portion was folded back and so I ended up with some rubbing on the driver and passenger side near the very front of the top. Needless to say I was pissed at myself for doing this. I actually ended up with a small pin point whole on the passenger side.

I watched a lot of videos last night to learn how to fold the top back correctly. It's raining this morning so I had to fold the top back in my garage. I posted some pictures. The last pic shows the small hole i now have in the top its the small black hole. Please take a look and let me know if it looks like it is folded back correctly now.

yep, that looks correct to me. I did the same thing the first time I tried to use the Sunrider, as well as when I put it fully down. I couldnt understand why it was on the rollbars.
