Re: Black top or colored top?
My first C4 was an Artic white 96. It came with just the painted top. I purchased a blue tinted top from Astro Tops and used it exclusively until the top started to separate on the left drivers corner. My second car was a black 91 that I used the bronze tinted top in spring time only. Summer and winter I switched to the painted top. My current Z is a Turquoise car with the blue tinted top. I have yet to use the painted top on the car. Another observation I found was that the tinted tops make the radio sound a bit more trebly. The painted top with the headliner absorb sound waves verses the tinted top bouncing the waves around.

Re: Black top or colored top?
Looking at my build sheet, seems mine was just ordered with the clear top. Which is what I have. I would love a Solid Polo green top, but now I like the look of the clear top.
And DAMN did I learn a lesson Easter Sunday!!! After doing the family brunch, I decided to take the top off and go for a cruise. Well I had parked in the sun, and WOW!!!! That top was hotter than a whore on dollar day lol....I can't imagine you guys with the all black interior in the summer. |

If I had the black top I would probably like that better in the summer here in TX.

Re: Black top or colored top?
Tint for the top is on my list of things to do. I had thought about doing a carbon fibre wrap on the top and the remainder fo the roof, but it may look a bit too "modern" so to speak.
