That is what I have been trying to ascertain - is this particular spot supposed to be glassed in or have inherent flex ? I have gotten good answers from both sides of the issue. I'd like to have a definitive answer so I do it once - right.
Adding a hardtop has made me notice that these joint areas where the topside and the liner meet - low, near the foot rests and up, flex A LOT more than without the hardtop. The OEM set up was Potter putty, but it is inconclusive if this was used as a spacer or mechanical connection. The fact that the Potter Putty was sandwiched between un-sanded, gelcoat is odd...
