Ability to remove windows, both side and rear (aka safari style?). Give you the soft top adaptability without the flapping.

HUGE sliding side windows already in the works


light enough you can move!  too heave and fragile! 

good front upper seal

anything is lighter than the steel option I currently have..
supposedly these tops are very weather proof... the pre 75 jeep however may not be  ::)
the windshield frames on these jeeps are basically glass holders.. very little weather proofing there..


I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

What color?
having a hard time deciding on just going with black/white or something else..
any input greatly appreciated at this point...


Top and doors in theory don't have to match...
My jeep is bellow and some examples of CJ5 hardtops posted for reference...

I vote classic black or color match blue in that order of preference.

I'd do top,  doors,  and tub in that same blue color of the front clip.

if it were all blue, white would be the only option for a top...

kind of the way I'm leaning...

Nope, not me.  Looked at it quick on my way out and snapped the pic.  Looks great.  I like the rub marks on the cage.  Gives it character.  Not just a mall crawler....
