I just had mine painted at a local shop on Cape Cod.
They charged me 700 dollars. That was going from red to Silver.

The painted hard tops are not the same texture as the standard black tops. The black tops have a kind of pebbly texture, not smooth. The painted top is smooth.

They're not even the same material. The standard black is a composite plastic and the painted tops are more fiberglass.

I remember at least one person who did on this forum. They painted it white, if I remember correctly.
