Next-Level Convertible Tops with Folded-Edge Bonding

April 25, 2025 By Gary Dekirmendjian

The Hog Ring - Next-Level Convertible Tops with Folded-Edge Bonding

When it comes to high-end convertible tops, it’s the details that make the difference. At OEM+ Auto Tops, we believe your soft top should look—and last—as impressively as the car it’s mounted on.

One standout feature that separates a premium top from the rest? The folded-edge glass-to-fabric bond. Think Bentley GTC, Audi A5, or Jaguar XK—that clean, seamless line where the fabric hugs the rear glass window.

What if we told you we don’t just replicate this factory finish—we exceed it?

A Factory Look, Engineered to Last

Reproducing that crisp folded-edge finish isn’t easy. The original OEM soft tops are designed with complex geometries and specific adhesives, which is why aftermarket options often fall short—until now.

Our Folded Edge Glass-Window Bonding System represents a technological leap in convertible top replacement. Developed through thousands of hours in research and development, we’ve engineered a process that not only mirrors the factory look but also tackles common soft top issues head-on. Say goodbye to edge separation, fabric delamination, and adhesive failure.

Behind the Bond: Cutting-Edge Technology

At OEM+, we don’t do guesswork. Our folded-edge system is the product of:

  • Custom precision-machined tooling: Every vehicle model gets its own set of tools, guaranteeing a flawless fit between fabric and glass.
  • A fully automated assembly line: Proprietary robotics ensure each top is manufactured with consistent quality and perfect geometry.
  • Aerospace-grade adhesives: We use the same class of polyurethanes trusted in aviation, designed to withstand extreme temperatures, moisture, and the test of time.

This isn’t just a glued edge—it’s a bonded, engineered seal that holds strong where others fail.

What Makes Our Folded Edge System Superior?

  • Exact factory appearance with a refined, wrapped edge finish
  • Unmatched durability with no fraying, peeling, or delamination
  • Precision tooling tailored to each vehicle make and model
  • Aerospace-grade polyurethane adhesives for superior strength
  • Robotic application for perfect consistency and quality control

Whether you’re driving a luxury convertible or restoring a classic, our folded-edge bonding system ensures your soft top replacement is as good as—or better than—the original.

The OEM+ Difference: Beyond Imitation

While other companies attempt to mimic the factory look, OEM+ Auto Tops surpasses it. Our folded-edge glass bonding system doesn’t just look the part—it performs under real-world conditions. From sun-drenched highways to rainy days, our tops maintain their sleek appearance and structural integrity.

If you’re searching for a convertible top that combines beauty, strength, and precision engineering, this is the feature that sets us apart. Trust OEM+ Auto Tops to deliver the quality your ride deserves.
