Not to my taste, but hey, whatever floats your boat. All wild Broncos need to be as individual as the folks who ride 'em....

I caught this on IG and had not seen it posted here yet. Painted MIC, white to match a white WildTrak 4 door.

was thinking that the side graphics break up the white nicely, but then someone goes ahead and paints the top white 🤮

Im not denying that many early Broncos had white roofs, but Ford stole the idea from the International Scout. They had white roofs for several years before Broncos.

I had a Scout back then and it was a great vehicle for it’s time. Then International came out with the Scout II in the early 70’s and it absolutely destroyed sales of early Broncos. When Ford canceled the early Bronco the Scout II was outselling Bronco by 2 to 1.

I guess that’s why I don’t get the fascination on B6G for white roofs, in my memory it was just a lame copycat move by Ford that did not work.

Funny thing is, a couple of weeks ago I drove past the International Trucks dealer and glanced over, hoping to see a brand new International Scout parked out front.

all I need is a couple cans of Duplicolor and I'll be all set to color match my WildTrak cactus grey! :)

I’m reeeeally curious to see how these painted MIC tops last in a year. I hope they do last and that they were painted properly.

Watch, “painted MIC top” will be Ford’s solution to their issues…

I think this white top looks great! Didn’t think I’d like it, but I do.
You can hide the honeycomb just not the shoddy construction

That looks good. I have been debating to have my top painted white. I have an A51 getting built eventually .. I think.. perhaps.. maybe.. but I think it would look good with white top and a white stripe.

I thought about ordering white but my plates would have had to say NOT OJ
I still think they missed the boat on not having a trim model that is white only and is the OJ model.

Body color or gloss black as the wildtrak was suppose to have? I have the same vehicle ordered as you and the same reservation.
Gloss black just to break it up. I ordered from Kearny Mesa Ford and my fleet guy has already worked out cost on having their Body Shop do the painting. He said:

" OUR COLLISSION CENTER CAN REPAINT YOUR M.I.C. ROOF ANY COLOR AFTER YOU PURCHASE YOUR BRONCO! "

Estimated cost was $2400 4 door and $2000 for the 2 door. You would be able to finance this upgrade according the their finance dept.

How long will they warranty it since there is still concern on the plastic outgassing until it is fully cured, shedding the paint?

Erroneous!!!

this can’t be done!

this won’t hold up.

If this was an option Ford would paint them.

that will chip soon.
Actually all the Broncos including my 94 and 96 all had painted removable hardtops and yes they chipped a bit but nothing that serious. They were not MIC tops they were painted.

I have a feeling if they went there, it would open a major can of worms.
