Wildboar Fastback - Painted or not? Opinions wanted.
 
I have a 2008 JKU, deep cherry red. I just placed my order for a T-top Wildboar fastback, Cargo Rack, and Snorkle.

The question I would like to ask is of I should have the T-top painted to match the Jeep, or left Black?


I have gone back and forth. so help is needed.

If your jeep is not black color matching just the t-tops I think would look awesome... something different from everyone else

I vote for leaving them black, when you take them off and on, the painted ones might not be as durable in the long run

k0260 01-03-2013 02:45 PM

Either way, those are the best lookin tops out there!:thumbsup:

horrocks007 01-03-2013 02:59 PM

My vote is painted!

I'm jealous. Definately color matched. Keep us posted in how long it takes to arrive and the process. I've been saving for one too

Painted tops and fenders are gay. Leave it black.

afpilot82 01-03-2013 04:58 PM

I say leave it black, I'm not a fan of color matched tops.

Painted would look good.... On a side note, deep cherry red didn't come out until 2011 prior to that it was Red Rock...just in case you are ordering factory matched paint the codes will be different and it wouldn't match.

For Rock Red I would leave it black.

Delux2769 01-03-2013 06:36 PM

I would say get it painted. But that's just me. They are sturdy and the workmanship ain't done cheaply.

Good luck though.

Leave it black. Or how about throwing some Line-X on it. That would look nice.

Black is generic and cheap looking. I guess its cool if ur going for the " one size fits all " look

It doesn't matter! Either way that top will look AWESOME!

Why don't you have someone of the forum photshop it for you so you can get a better feel for how it'll look?

JKJA10 01-04-2013 06:54 PM

Leave it black

loader963 01-04-2013 08:26 PM

If you painted the fenders paint the top. If they're not then go black bro. Wish i had got the t top but ive got the one piece black but looks great. Congratulations and post pics man !

Asulil 01-08-2013 02:06 PM

Thanks - Everyone.

I have decided to have it painted.

Talked to Wildboar. I was told that there was 4 people ahead of me on the unmodified list (no windshield wiper), and 6 people a head of me on the modifeid list. Deborah still didnt feel comfortble giving me a time frame inside of 8 weeks.

Maybe they only have one mold.

Btw no windshield Wiper out motor also means no heated back glass. It all comes in one harness. Not that you can see out of it but still wish mine had it. Anyway congratulations and its worth the wait.
