Convertible top colors

I am thinking of changing the color of my top as Im do for a new one. Has anyone tried a Burgundy or Dark Ruby or a Blue. Can I see some pics?

I'm always a black top fan...

I've seen blue on a white car/white interior, looked OK.

Here's the burgundy. I actually ordered a dark ruby color which will be put on asap. The burgundy is not bad in the shade or wet but dry it's too light.

ugh everyone says that. Every white Firebird has a black top maybe a handful of blue. Boring! I look at it as the same as painting rims.

unless that matches a custom interior.... no. the 30th anni TA's had blue tops, but were accented by the wheels, stripes, and interior stitching,

Ahhh I know. It's like changing rims. One step at a time. Maybe I'll get a custom red clear coat paint for the rims just like the blue anniversary rims lol.

I like the color of the top. It reminds me of the old Jordan 6's in the Maroon and White colorway. Would love to see more Maroon accents added to the rest of the car to match...maybe a ram air hood with some custom maroon CETA stripes and feathers on the side would look AMAZING.
