Broke my top!!
I was lifting my hardtop off my jku. I was using some heavy rope. When I engaged my lift the rope tore the fiberglass in the corners where the back doors. The tear is about 2.5"into the top. How do I fix it. Is there some sort of a fiberglass repair kit or what.

Ur local hardware store along with parts shop should carry fiberglass repair kits, I usually buy marine resin smooth the area and then apply the resin in coats sanding between coats (I'm no professional body guy, I just did my own work on my carbon fiber race body work for my old bike when I'd crash it) want perfect but u don't see it at 60mph lol

It is made of a special type of Fiberglas called SMC. Look for an SMC repair kit. Regular Fiberglas kits may not be compatible.
