So I pulled a rookie mistake... I had just the front of my soft top folded back and backed into the garage. Only, the soft top was too tall, struck the top of the garage, and bent the bars all to pieces. Shattered some plastic off the tracks as well. I was able to bend the arms back enough to the get top to close but it's still misaligned. Can anyone here please post some photos of their soft top so I can try to re-align mine? Specifically, the front arms that have the little instruction stickers with the QR codes and where they connect to the header. I'll post some photos of mine to give a better idea. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good luck. I did the exact same thing and my dealer told me it was common. So common that they had a list of all the parts that would need replaced. I ended up just getting a hard top. It was about the same price and worth it I think.

That sucks. I appreciate you posting this. I'm waiting for my wrangler, and I don't think I would have ever even thought of checking the clearance to my garage with the top back.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one! I wouldn't mind a hard top as well. Hoping I can salvage this soft top though.

No worries! If you need more pics lemme know, and nice choice on your part as well - I had to add the tan skin myself, getting it from the factory is a way better call!
