Ford Bronco Paint rollbar on the lighter colors? IMG_2295.JPG
What do you guys think black, charcoal, or ????? You can cover most of it with a bikini top but the back rail is still visible.

Satin black is what I’d like to do.

I actually like the body color roll cage. I hated that the JK's only had body color about a foot up the cage and then they just hid the unpainted part with a pad that gets destroyed by the sun. If anything, I would get a colored Bronco and paint the roll cage white.

That's my plan as well. Regardless of what exterior color I get I'll be painting the roll cage black. Helps it "visually disappear" when the top is off.

To each their own, the body color that is carried over to the interior is part of my decision. I'm still not 100% decided but I'm down to 2 with a likely choice being Oxford White. I like the white on the interior as it will brighten up the cabin. For my needs, I will never have the rear clam shell off. I'm opting for the 2-dr modular top. Between the front roof panels and the gunner's hatch, it is plenty to achieve the open air feeling.

the inside of the rollbar is clad in plastic. You can only see the white when the top is off. Your right to each his own but if you black it out it doesn't stand out to your eye.

Only the top of the roll bar is clad in plastic. The lower support arms are body color along with rear gate and the exposed edge where the roof marries to the body. Also, on 2-dr models, there is body color panels on the interior of the door. So choosing a white body color that is exposed on the interior of the cabin helps brighten the cabin.

I’m sure you could vinyl wrap them instead of painting them, less permanent.

Personally, I like the body colour matching roll bars. I’m not touching them, but to each their own.

Painted or wrapped? What did it cost you if you don’t mind me asking? The shop doing my PPF is saying it would be a huge hassle either way.

I’m looking to wrap mine in white to go along with white script fender badges and white wheels and my detail / wrap / collision guy quoted $500. Seemed okay to me but I’ve never done any wrapping on a car before.

Sorry, meant to reply to this comment. Still learning the ropes of posting here.

Did you paint it white or wrap it? And what did it run you? Thanks in advance!
