Default Hard top color?

Do you prefer the Body Color hard top or the black one?

I'm on the fence, personally, and need to decide when I go Jeep shopping next month. HELP!

I went with the body color top. Black on black. Some dont like it but I do. And you dont have to watch the top fade in the sun. The only one that looks really weird is the white on white. Looks like an ambulance to me.

My 12 Sahara is Dozer with a black top. One color is just too much Dozer for me. Some of the common colors look too much like a G Wagon. I like the traditional look of the black top.

Personally hate the body color hard tops and fenders. They don't look like Wranglers.

Good luck with the decision!

I went with the black top on silver. Seems more classic with black top INMO Also think it depends on which model your getting and what color your fenders will be. On a Sahara it isnt bad with everything the same, but if your looking at a Rubi i think black top for sure

I used to hate the body color tops but they have grown on me. Its a tough call what color are you looking for?

I have the sahara so the body color fenders but had the dealer remove the body color top. Just didn't do it for me and I was more concerned about scraping/scratching it under trees or something.

I have a black 2012 rubi unlimited with painted top and I think it looks pretty good. I have the painted fenders too but theyre in the garage, I bought used non painted fenders and trimmed those instead
