Why not just Line-X the MIC top to make it black (or whatever color you want)? Sure, it will cost more, but wouldn’t it hold up better than a painted top? Honestly, I don’t know much about it, but it seems like a good idea for those who hate the gray MIC. Plus, you wouldn’t have to wait until late 2021. I would definitely consider doing this for the 2 door. Most pictures and reviews for Line-X on Jeep tops are really good. ?

Why? It is MIC to hide scratches. It is not* like the bed of a truck. IMO a hard pass on that, but if you want to do it, it is your Bronco.

Easier , cheaper and lighter to just dye it with vinyl dye .

To change the color!
I get it. But rhino liner would add a lot of weight as already stated. Also as stated a vinyl solution will do the trick. I have a feeling we will have tons of options after market.

No idea how that works, but I’ll look into it. Thanks for the idea!
Good prep work to remove any oils or mold release agents then just spray on . I would get the quart cans from a paint supply house and use a real paint gun but have had excellent results from doing customers vehicles over my 20 years in business .
Amazon.com : vinyl dye

Awesome! I would never trust myself to apply it. I’ll happily pay a professional!

It’s a good option. Also hope the dye option works like rydfree mentioned but I wouldn’t want to be the guinea pig.

I ultimately decided against it because I didn’t want the rough truck bed liner texture
