    Vinyl top thoughts

    Just thinking, anyone have alternate color suggestions for a vinyl top on a black car? I have grey interior, and its a full vinyl top, so it goes from the windshield all the way back. I was thinking possibly having it done in grey, but I think it might look stupid. Thoughts?

    No, I'm not getting rid of the vinyl either.

    I think that would look good. Do you have the chrome rockers? If so, the gray would be a nice contrast to those. At some point, I know I'm going to need to replace the coach roof on teh Fog. When I do, it's going to be grey to match my lower rockers.

      I would go dark gray, if you do. Red would look ok, but with the gray int. it wouldn't work. Not many choices!

        No stainless on the rockers yet, but its on the list. I have one panel on now covering up a rot hole so I could get through inspection tho. Its held in with the corner light only lol.

        Might have to think about dark grey. I'm just thinking something to give it some color contrast. All black is just kinda blah, and its hot as fuck in the summer.

            Towncars with no vinyl look retarded.

              Thain, I think the grey top will look pretty good on that car, provided you manage to match the interior color. Also TCs don't really look all that bad with the slick top, remember that picture of a dark red early '80s TC someone posted here a while ago?

                id stay black. especially if the top is in good shape.
                black with full top is the win.
                id change the int colour to red for teh boner.

                      I think grey would look good. I would go dark grey though like boxman said.

                        Pimp Hard, what's up with the blond chick? I'm sure she will do quite well as an interior piece, but we're discussing the exterior here now... although hers sure is eye-catching
