I'd LOVE to see what a Griff looks like with this hardtop on.Will it fit a Griff?

No Griff owner has ever tried it, so I can't say exactly, but if the rear deck profile is the same between Griff & Chim then yes - it should just drop in place just the same.
Even if the rear deck shape was slightly different, I can very easily leave some extra laminate along the lower edge and trim it down to suit the Griff instead, not too difficult.
The only obvious drawback with a Griff is the narrower boot aperture meaning the rear section cannot be stowed in the Griff boot.
If any Griff owner currently has their rear folding section removed from the car and they're within a reasonable distance I'm more than happy to travel to place these hardtop sections onto the bodyshell and see what it looks like. We'll know then if it's a direct fit or if it needs any tweaking.

My car like many has to live outside and this looks like it changes the game, instead of the Chim/Griff being essentially a summer car you can see how using this and sorting any water ingress from other areas will give you less damp,and condensation. Should be quieter with the roof on I'd imagine too.
Really great addition to the things you can do with these cars hope we can buy them soon
