Check out this thread... Hole wearing in the convertible top
Look at post # 5 for pictures, if this is what you're talking about the tip of the piece that rubs was semi-rubber coated and wore off after a while. The tip on the new top is made out of plastic. Spag showed me his top back when this was first posted and sure enough mine was ripped. They replaced the complete top, frame and all (some dealers are having the canvas only replaced ) Thanks Spag  
I put a piece of Teflon faced tape on the undersides of the top where it used to rub "just in case", acts as a "wear strip" and you can't see it.
