How about a vinyl wrap? Any color. What is the lifespan on them.

before ford killed all the options but the MIC top, there was supposed to be a body color top, black top, and maybe a white top since there been some test cars seen on the road with them. Just hoping they change suppliers. Webasto is a lost cause
The only color available at the time of my original order was Shadow Black. As far as IF they ever again offer a painted modular top they certainly won't offer it in my color (AMB)

What paint matched modular top are you talking about? I don't recall this item.
Ford announced a painted metal modular hardtop a long time ago. It can kind of be seen here:



Was supposed to be available on release in 2021, and then was delayed to 2022... Clearly still isn't available for MY'22.

Oh weird, do you know what that small window was when there was a painted mod top available for order?

It was $1495 on the 2 door build and price in the spring of 21.
Add $1495 to $5000 soft top = $6495 at the counter. My bet is $7500.

One thing we are banking on is price protection so that we can still get the MOD in MY23. Perhaps they’ll extend to 24.

They also haven’t dropped info on WHO is making the MOD tops since they dropped Worstbesto.

Shipping will be expensive on the mod top if it’s bought from the parts department.

Aside from body-side color on the hard top, what do you really get? The original painted MOD top had removable rear side windows, but beyond that and the body-side color...that's it as I understand it. I originally was supposed to have the painted MOD top but I feel like the MIC (set aside quality control problems encountered by a number of folks) looks pretty dang good. I've looked at my Wrangler that has a painted MOD top and our Bronco with MIC, and, being very honest, I prefer the MIC on the Bronco. Just my 2 cents on a debate that is ages old.

Ford can’t even put out base tops at this point. I bailed on the mod to get a 22 bronco. No way mod top will be available for 23. They couldn’t even paint the top black for the top of the line raptor bronco. Just a grey mess of a top on a 100k truck, after adm.
