what color top?
Just had the blazer painted. Its a metallic greyish tan, on a later model bmw. Looking to see what color I should have the top painted. White or a khaki/ light tan?

Re: what color top?
thought about smoothing it out and getting it painted the same color, body shop told me the fibers of the fiberglass might show up later on in the paint? I thought abouy painting it with the rhinoliner and having them tint the same color or lighter or an off white. Just haven't seen a blazer this color with a different colored top.

Re: what color top?
As long as the fiberglass is solid I wouldn't worry about the fibers showing through. Just make sure it has a good coat of epoxy then filler prime, block and paint. What about body color, but flattening agent in the clear? That may look cool

I love that color! I agree with Bouncy, go a couple of shades darker on the top.
Very Nice!! |

Another vote for white.
Whatever you do paint the inside white otherwise it can be pretty dark and depressing inside. |

Re: what color top?
White would be my choice too. Especially with the hot area you are in. PG
