DIY $500 Painted Hard Top Is The Best Thing Ive Ever Done
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Today I finally color matched my black Jeep Wrangler hard top to match the limited edition gecko green paint! I think it turned out amazing for $500 and 3 long days of hard work! And to answer the age old question of can you color match a hard top after the fact the answer is yes! :)
Definitely need to black out the tail lights, this thing is gonna look clean after the suspension and wheels for sure
Nah thats mexican asf
That smile on his face, was the success that he did it right, and enjoys the look as much as I do!
I love how Ryan shows us that you can do anything that you put your mind too. Keep up the great work an I always enjoy watching your videos
Love the vid bro. Love that you're back to the basics with the instructions and layout. Keep that going. And when you do your lifts, be step by step with those too even if it makes your vids longer. It's we love and want! Keep it up!
I was just thinking how good at painting you have taught yourself ever since the Silverado truck I remember you had a hard time with that one now your just busting out paint jobs right an left can't wait to see the jeep an bronco both done can't believe you haven't sold the dodge yet
It's really amazing how much you can teach yourself man As the days go on
That dodge is a pretty penny, its worth a ton...I'd love to buy it
Looks soooooo much better paint matched. Great work
Looks great nice job. I have red with red top and would like to door handle and mirrors on the Jeep again great job👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That would look sick!
Color matched or black raptor liner on the inside of the top makes for a nice touch too
Yah missed an opportunity to take this to the next level with a colour matched interior the white is underside is ugggg
That's one HELL OF A TRANSFORMATION..sweet!!!!!
Finally, I've been waiting all week😫 the painted top seriously brings the stock jeep up to "Ryan Mayer" levels. Now all it needs is the wheels
Yes all that and lftd!
Man, im not a jeep kinda guy but that thing is looking nasty, I love it!! Cant wait to see the wheels on it.
What would you charge for hard top and fenders? Curious what this would cost as i have no paint experience nor do I want to buy a bunch of stuff to do it my self. I have a compressor my self but I doubt its big enough to paint and I dont use it enough already.
Painting the hard top made such a huge improvement ! Outstanding job Ryan. Funny you mentioning about painting the roof in the American 🇺🇸. The Bantam Jeep commercial that played during your segment showed a 1/4 scale model Jeep with that exact paint scheme on it.
Just commenting for the algorithm. Looking great man!!
Thanks joshua you a real one!
Wow. This looks really great. Thanks for letting us know you can work with a textured hardtop rather than replacing it. My son has a 2016 4 door JK/Sport in the Rhino color and giving it a more monochromatic look by body coloring the fenders and hardtop is the way to go. The one exception is maybe painting the top portion of the hardtop a white or light color to minimize the effect of Texas sun and heat. Also, I would be inclined to do all the prep work and let a body shop do the paint since i have no real experience (or equipment) for that end of the job. My Festool sanders with dust extraction will work well on removing the texture. Again, thank you so much for showing how to do this.
You’re welcome! Glad I could help!
The outcome was great
No doubt, you have the best videos on youtube. Love how just a regular guy can take something so plain and break the internet with it. Keep up the good videos bro!!
Starting to take shape! Hell yeah. Not just the same ol Jeep build. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I have an 02 that I'm going to repaint the top and some trim panels and was gonna do a character for my pops on the top but an American flag would be dope too
I still can't figure out way this channel doesn't have 2-3M subs? Ryan provides some Great content and is very talented building some incredible builds! Keep up the Great work Ryan!!!
Thank you!!!
14:33 I recognize that look. I've seen it before! It's when what was in your head is now infront of you. Always so happy for you when I see it. Wrangler is looking mint! Can't wait to see more....on ALL your builds to be honest.
YES YES YES
I sanded it down with 180 to remove the texture and applied primer surfacer. Then sanded it down with 400, 600, and 800. I removed the glass from the hardtop before I painted it. It's time consuming but looks better than textured black.
For being a relatively newer subscriber Ryan, I have to admit your a very talented painter and vehicle customizer..... I have watched about 4 of your builds now & you never disappoint EVER... I give you a kudos young man....
God damn lime did it again love the color matching looks factory.
Looks great, my wife wanted the Geko to go with our old Orange Crush JK, but not avail when we got around to looking. That is sweet, when the top on the JK needs paint, I think body color is the way to go, that looks great! Good Job and you earned a new subscriber.
Nice job it looks great love the green
Been watching you since the beginning and every time I watch a video I always say to myself “what can’t this man do”. Seriously what can’t you do?!
Hahahah I’ve done so many things from lawn care, irrigation, cooking, automotive, home improvement. Lol anything I want to learn how to do or need done I just kinda figure it out myself!
@@ryan2546 exactly how I am! RUclips is the best teacher ever hahha
Jeep is coming out hellish nice my friend. Not big on the Gecko Green but hey its totally up to the individual and what makes them happy.
colormatched rear tire mount would be sick
👀👀👀
that lil bit a that green pokin thru the middle of them big ass rims on the back gat damn
Thanks, broskis. I was planning on doing the same with my hard top and you just took away any doubt I had.
I was a lil skeptical but its goin to look SICK. Cant wait to see it finished
That looks spectacular! I just got an '07, and the top needs TLC. My stepson actually does this kind of painting for a living, so I have an "in" :-)
Dude that thing looks freaking killer. I’m literally about to do mine after seeing you do it
Yesssss
Favorite build on this channel so far. Gonna be so sweet
I’m so stoked bro you have no idea….
Nice Audi in the back! Your doing great man good to see you just busting out these paint jobs like you used to do tires back in the day!
Just like every vehicle you've customized, the jeep is turning out sick 🔥🔥💯. Can't wait to see it all come together, it's gonna be the hottest jeep in 2022.
A paintable mopar hard top is $3,400 unpainted. This is definitely the way to go and save!
Ryan my brother, the Wrangler looks awesome, the work you do amazes me & I love how you take the time to explain things. You rock brother!
I want to see the inside of the roof painted always thought that would look cool
Sick!! Man when you get those wheels and tires on. Ohhhhhh my.
as always PROFESIONAL QUALITY, looks much better
i have a 2020 sport and i cant wait to follow this build.
you already know ryan has got subs in the jeep 🤙
Jeep looks 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Totally bad ass makes it look sweet color matching all them parts one of a kind look the lift and the big bad ass wheels will set it off with a killer look
I thought the paint matched mirrors were to much, now it looks sick as hell, killer👌🏽
A custom painted locking gas cap would be pretty dope
That guys comin
That thing is going to be slick
I love the purple, green is ok in my opinion.
Ryan you are such an inspiration to do it yourself I own a 2019 ram 1500 crew cab 4x4 me and my dad installed a 3in front puck and a 2in puck rear cause I tow but I want more like a zone 6in lift and the install the puck and then put a 3in body lift that's 12in just in lift for bigger tiers put I haven't seen anyone do it just funds are in short supply in my house I tow a 7x16 enclosed trailer
This looks insane maybe one of the coolest builds yet
Looks so much better now!
This may end up being my favorite build yet. Looks sick!
You snapped Ryan 🐍🐍🐍💚✅
Build is bad ass! Great work my friend. Bring on the lift kit please!
This thing bro. Can't wait to see it completed. Gonna be sick!!!!!!!!!!
Yea that came out pretty damm sick, great job💯🔥🔥
Thank you!!
Love the way the jeep is coming out
DAMN SHE 👀 GOOD 👍 BUD!! Can’t wait too see the finish product bro 😎
Kinda looks like a G wagen without the flares…but man that thing does look stellar!
Damn dawg making me sleep late posting late vids. Now i gotta watch it! Lol
YesSiRr!! Mate... that looks BLOODY AWESOME!! Love ur work...
This is nice!! Can't wait to see how the Bronco turns out.
I painted the inside of my hard top with a black bedliner paint,looks alot better then the white it came with.
Looks great
Colored match jeeps always look better! Definitely bad ass
Man that green looks MUCH better than I thought it would! Good call on that color matching Ryan!
That color matched top is killer
You did an amazing job! Would you consider doing someone’s else hard top for them? I would be interested. Let me know!
Watching you do all this is very inspiring to others cant believe how for this channel has come keep up the great work!
I am loving this Jeep build! It is looking great Ryan!! Keep up the great work! I love it all color match! I love my all color match Gladiator! I think black tops looks good for a Wrangler, but looks ok for Gladiators. I think color match roofs look better on Gladiators maybe because the length and the bed.
Yeah the gladiators need to look like a normal pickup all colormatched is the way to go!
I understand and like the black accents but I really think color matching the gas tank inside bezel and then like a billet gas cap would really set off that side
Dude that turned out sick can't wait until it's finished
Looks badass. I think you should paint the hood latches and the vent panels on the side purple to match the accent color I think that would be sick
flawless
Looks good
Was going to bed. But ain’t now. 🤟🤟
That’s rightttttt
same here lol
DAAAMMN IIIIITTT man this thing is lookin soooo freakin good my lord!!! your killen it bro!!
Hey Ryan a nother great video on your channel u definitely my favorite RUclipsr keep up the amazing work on all of your truck build the green jeep hardtop look so good in green
Can’t wait to see the rest of this build
It’s gonna slappppp
She's mint! Keep up the hard work!
WOW !!!! Looks excellent 👍🏻💥😎👀
One of the best looking jeeps and it’s not even done. Just to show that just color matching can make a big difference.
Huge difference!
🤩🤩 that thing looks golden
Unfreaking believable!!!! Wow!!! Are you taking orders?
Damn i love this color 😍
I am loving this jeep content
Nice work!
I have a question, who are the artists behind the music in your video? The music was just as good as watching the video. Lol
Looks stellar dude great job
That looks so sick already, this is gonna be tight
Good job man
Looking real good Ryan 👍🏻
Got to admit I like where this jeep is going.
YASSSSS
Paint looks good on camera can’t even see any shade differences. Can we get an antenna delete? Lol Also are you planning on leaving the interior of hardtop white or maybe color matching it with paint or carpet?
For now just white!!!
I 100% agree you can't see any shade difference. My eye usually catches even a frog hair of difference in shade. Not on this one. Color match matches. Nicely done Ryan.
Keep up the good work, enjoy every single one of your builds 🤟
Looking good Ryan, great video.
You’re a master your craft brother! Very well done! Coming together really nice👌🏼 I’d have to agree with another comment I read tho about the tails. The red is just a touch out of place in my eyes and might look better tinted. Just my opinion
Man I wish I had a set on me like you do 🤣🤣 the one thing my channels always lacking is body work and paint on every build, mainly the duramax k30 recently. This has inspired me pretty much to finally think about the dreaded B word lol killer work as usual man!!
It’s a bad hole to fall down because once you know you’ll always be able do anything and everything and you end up doing it allll the time
Hell yeah! Love the build you my boy Ryan ! Love the content!
It looks amazing!
