Who Says Car Repair Has To Be Expensive?

Captain Dr. "The Original Chip" Mac, esq. captured this image and sent it my way.

So, here is a VW Beetle Convertible whose top apparently had an issue.  The resourceful owner decided to take on this daunting repair task his/herself.  Let's analyse the finished project, shall we?  First, I do have to give them credit for actually installing a window for rear viewing.  However, the "top" is held on with bungee cords and appears to be rather loose.  I imagine this results in significant flapping at highway speed.  I also doubt it is more securely fastened in the front, so there is an ongoing threat of it just flying off one day.  If that happens, the only hope for any car behind them is that the viewing portal lands perfectly so they can watch the Bug drive off with the wind blowing in their hair.
