One of the project's huge goal was to make a full restoration of the canopy: correct the gap issue, cracks, awful interior paiting, etc... (see here The most common canopy issues )
This process took soo much time (about a month working throughout the night until 2AM and over weekends!) and effort that I'm not documenting all steps in detail. I will just drop here all pictures and comments of the full process.
Have fun!
