Is the MIC carbonized grey still modular? Does it still have the 4 removable panels?

I love the contrast of a light body color with a shiny shadow black top. but i like the grey too too, and think it would go well with cactus grey

Forgive me if this has been covered, but wouldn’t the MIC tops be more scratch resistant?

Area 51 looks to me like it could be the same as “Performance Blue” on the Raptor. Thoughts?

Theoretically, yes. Though you'll have to deal with more/earlier fading since it's plastic.

My phone is water resistant, doesn't mean it's be a good idea to go swimming with it

"Resistant" doesn't carry a lot of meaning in marketing

While some say it's too early to say the top will fade, I'll argue that it's too early to simply take it for a fact that they won't fade.

Until these things spend a few seasons in the sun nobody really knows how they'll hold up. I'm sure ford tested, but testing isn't the real world.

I don't have a dog in this fight, hopefully they won't fade but it's too early to tell
The Jeep tops appear black to me - I am wondering if they fade :unsure:

The 2 door Black Painted Hard Top is $1200.
It comes standard with Grey Plastic Hard Top.

The 4 door Black Painted Hard Top is $1900.
The Grey Plastic Hard Top is $700.
It comes standard with soft top.

I think.
I think there's one more black painted top much like the $1900 one, except the windows are not removable. I would expect that one to price around $1500?

I'm still not convinced that the $700 hardtop isn't just a single molded piece. The $1900 version includes the word "modular." Is there any documentation or pictures of the $700 one on the 4-door?

There isn’t a single molded piece top. The modular top adds the pop out windows and the “sunroof” above the back seats on the 2-door. I think the $1900 top on the pricing tool is the shadow black top, not the MIC top, even though the email details don’t say that.

I really thought the “base” hardtop has removable sections over the first row, second row, then the back was all one piece.
I know I’ve seen that in a video. And one of the official ford people commented on the difference between modular and the “standard” hardtop in one of the Q/A sessions.

anyone smart enough to search for that and find proof? I can’t remember where I saw that. Kind of information over load at this point.

I don’t. For all the reasons people avoid black cars, I am avoiding a gloss black roof

I'm more of a body colored top person, but I can't understand the gray top and fenders that is the same texture that's on the jeep, it tends to fade to an ashen color over time and if you get wax on it it will almost most be ruined.
