Thanks Guy`s :nice: ..

dadrab you could be right about the black roof !! but i will wait and see what it looks like after i do the window seals, door handles etc. also the rack and roof lights
might help the look!!

Thanks C. :nice: I thought about that too!!

Im not sure now :banghead: most jeeps i have seen have the body
a different colour from roof and i like that look!
But your right.... a camo roof would look good!

What if I done the roof camo but the opposite of the body!
As in dark brown base with light sandy detail ? (hope that makes sense?)

Or maybe I should have a poll and let you guys decide?

any ideas much appreciated!!!!!..... :chug:

most jeeps do have different color tops, with a few exceptions, white on white, black on black and another assorted differences depending on year models.

but with camo, it doesnt look righ if the whole thing isnt camo, kind of defeats the purpose of having a camo vehicle.

i do like the idea of a black top, but would make more sense with just a tan body. a brown top may work, maybe the light brown you used on the camo? just a thought.

obviously it is your jeep and you have to look at it everyday, so dont listen to us, do what makes you happy.

i made a white jeep with brown fenders and everyone was against it at first and it ended up being one of my most popular jeeps i built, so if i had listened to everyone it would have gotten re-painted immediately.

Well if it was my jeep I'd colored it the same as the body :nice: because the way i see it, if you go camo you need to go all the way :nice:

here is one you can compare too :

IMO it'll look better with the body and top with the same color scheme.... :nice:

Camo body...PINK roof...

Nah, that would look terrible even by my warped standards. :laugh:

A camo roof might look pretty good, though. I'll be interested to see the final product no matter what you come up with. :nice:

If you go with a darker base color for the roof and camo on that, you'd be sticking with the "traditional" paint schemes for Jeeps.

However, if you just continue the camo pattern from the body, I believe the outcome would be stunning. It would definitely be different, and I have a feeling like that's what you're hunting for with this paint job.

Alfons, the pic that I've posted is to show how it'll look with a black top...not for the type of top just for the color combination :nice:
And Ed is right that is what i was going for :nice: :nice:
(not the pink roof though.....well now that i think of it...... :laugh: )
