There appears to be a subset of forum members who REALLY want a white top. Myself, I don’t see how a white top is going to look right with black mirrors, door handles, fender flares, grille, bumpers, and wheels, but that’s just me.

So, what’s the deal with a white top? I’d love to hear your answers. ?

For the retro look and the heat reflectivity.

There has been a motif popping up pretty frequently in recent threads regarding “why let others influence your choice.” Whenever I start to wonder if I should stretch beyond my budget for that 2.7 or the Sasquatch package, I remind myself a lot of these people probably also feel strongly that the white top is nearly as crucial and it sort of breaks the spell for me.

I hope the white top arrives soon for all those who want it. I even agree it looks nice on the blues! I am most grateful for it though for its ability to remind me that I don’t need to agree with everyone/anyone else to be happy with my build :) I don’t force myself ever getting a white top. Gonna ride my “boring” dark gray with black accents or black with more black and eventual red accents and the only white you’ll see on my rig will be my teeth as I grin my ass off all the way to wherever I’m going. Damn but this thing is cool.

I think the Cyber Orange is a closer match to Chrome Yellow, this one looks like Calypso Coral or Tangerine:

Love seeing pics of my Orange ‘77 pop up in random places👍 It’s not tangerine but close. It was a custom order and doesn’t have a paint code. Ford said it is likely a truck or car color they were using in those years but impossible to match exactly since it’s over 40 years old.

I like it, it's obviously very classic. However, I'd like an option for a tan top, like the 90's Eddie Bauers had.

Opted for the cream top on eruption green. Didn’t do the flares or the grill. Thought that would be too much. This adds the right amount of retro look for me.

This is the only white-ish top I’ve seen on a 6th Gen that actually looks good (IMO). Well done!

That looks really good, awesome job. The bright white everyone else is using just doesn't look right.

3M wrap. Crossing fingers it stays put
Been thinking about this.

Which color? Pearl White SP10?

Curious to how this holds up.

I don’t have the exact color code. This is a 3M product that was left over from another job. It’s called cream but closely resembles light ivory (G79). But I can’t say for sure.
As for durability. The hinge caps on the lift gate window are not holding as well as we hoped. The flat roof panels are doing great. Been on about 2 months tho so time will tell

hope that helps
