Bay Westys with tops NOT white?

I am looking for pics of Bay Westys with the top painted any color other than white. So far, I have only seen 1 here on Samba that has the top painted black. Any others out there?

There's one around where I live, haven't got a pic of it though, the whole thing is military green, looks kinda ugly imo Rolling Eyes

White helps keep the heat out. Ever see the top of a UPS van? If they painted those things all brown your steak of the month would probably be medium rare by the time it got to our house. If you need another color keep it as light as you can. Perhaps a nice pastel?

This is the color I have in mind in a satin finish. This is for the beltline and everthing above. The lower section will be a dark brown satin.

I color-matched mine...

& yes, it's pretty hot in the summertime & not practical. I don't give a shit, it looks better IMO with a black top. (just camp under trees) Wink

Jerry... I really like the all blacked out look you have. Must be hell to keep up though.
