Mine is doing the same thing. Please let me know if you get replacements for the rubber around the bars (seeing as your so close to me, I'm in T.O.). I am going to try to find a better suited rubber for the seam. Mine keeps coming unglued. Other than that it is a good looking cover. However, my preferance would be something moulded in plastic with metal reinforcement, fiberglass is heavy and unless it is sanded to perfection tends to be a little wavey.

I'll let you know if I find anything. Are you signed up with the toronto subaru club as well?

Not as of yet, just getting started. I will sign up today. I see they have meets every once in a while. I'm definitely interested in the get togethers. I want to see how much other Subaru's have in common with the Baja so I can start making some upgrades.

Well I got the cover in today and had it installed in a matter of minutes. All I can say is whoo-hoo! So far so good.

Was that cover on a 06 Turbo?? If it was, that may be the factory cover that you can only get it you buy the thing with the 06 Turbo, as part of an option package. Mike
