I have a stingray rubicon with a black hardtop and considering painting the top red (thinking snazzleberrish color). Has anyone tried mixing and matching colors like this before? I think it would look good, but it’s an expensive experiment so would like to get some feedback.

Not Stinggray but hopefully will give some insight in different color combos, here is a white Jeep with a red top and a GCM top.

IMHO the white/GCM is an excellent combo.

The red one I traded a black hardtop for, even trade (I did drive 1,400 miles though). The gray one I bought from a salvage company, it was Punkin’, had it painted GCM.

That red top looks terrible on white in my opinion. The Granite Crystal looks really good.

For Sting Gray, black or matching color looks best. Your idea of mixing your solid gray with a pearl coat maroon sounds like it would be difficult to look at. It would have to be a color with no flake or pearl in it, like your paint. Maybe a solid deep red, Nissan had a color like that on the Titan in the mid 2000s. A non flake deep blue or charcoal may work too.

Crazy at it sounds, I think you could pull of white on a Sting Gray. Then put on a set of Quadratech white wagon spoke wheels or a set of white Fifteen52 Analogs.

I have been given zero ducks. But I don’t go very many places where it gets parked somewhere like at a big shopping center or movie theater.

My sister’s bone stock Bikini JLU Sport has been ducked twice since she got it last month.

I lifted these images from a 2018 thread. Credit to @Steveo

This just doesn’t work in my opinion.

This works much better than I would have thought

You can use these images to photo shop other colors on to see how you like them.

So far I think that khaki tan works the best. Looks like a color called Coyote tan.
