Im not sure how well paint will hold up on the top. They come stained the color they are from the factory. You may have trouble with the paint cracking when the top flexes. But paint may be the only option as a dark stain would be hard to cover with the tan.

Not sure if you interested, but stc makes soft tops in about any color you could want with or w/out tinted windows. I just got my black top, just waiting for the weather to warm up

BTW, mine costs $517.00 to my door for the entire kit, so its kinda pricey.

My top was painted to match my Bronco and I have never had any problems with it. I really like the look.

I am too interested in having my top match my black bronco. I heard the top has to be sanded and then painted. You can't just paint over it obviously. If any one had it done how much did it cost? My uncle had it done and it looked great.
