    Any competent upholstery shop can recover the top in any color you want. If they only install ready made vinyl roofs, then the aren't a competent shop anyhow!!!!

    You can strip everything off and paint the metal underneath. The only trick part is that if there are holes drilled in the roof to hold the vinyl top surround strip, they will have to be sealed to keep water out of the interior (dab of silicone after painting will work)
