Re: vinyl top
It's up to you to do what you want. I don't like vinyl roofs, because they offer an opportunity for water to get trapped and create cancer (rust) issues. Plus, they look bad when they start to deteriorate. Looking at it from an aerodynamic standpoint, they also induce what we call 'parasitic drag' which subtracts from fuel economy (although something to the order of one gallon for every 500 miles or so).
You can take the top off, sand it down and repaint it - but usually on the cars that get a vinyl roof, the roof-to-C-pillar joint is not completed and will need to be filled in with body filler and sanded (ala Bondo).
