your comments are ignorant. This is a local business in my area and they have been supporting the off road/Raptor community for years. They are not playing games or baiting anyone. If you don't like their price, then just pass. I have had two sets of their fenders for the Gen 1 Raptor and they are very well made and good fit and finish. Before you rip into a local business do your homework.
Ok so homework assignment number one for you is what is the price, not the starting price but for each type roof, all options, and where are the photos?

Yeah. $5750+Options+shipping. You will be $7k into this thing BEFORE you have to paint it. Unfortunately, I’m out. Imho it’s about $1500-$2000 too much.

Unfortunately the Ford top will always be butt ugly. If I had wanted a Ford Flex I would have bought one! If it had been a quality and attractive hardtop I would have waited but I've thought the aesthetics were awful from day 1 when we all placed reservations.

And that's another thing. Not to single you out, because I've seen this several times in this thread alone, but why are people bringing up the cost of painting the top? You don't have to paint it. No matter what top you get, if you want it painted to match the body color, it's going to cost extra. So that's a wash. Stop acting like paint is a whole other expense you have to suffer if you buy from ADV...

If I get pushed to MY23 I likely go back to dual Mod tops for $3k less than this.

I'd be a buyer at sub $4k delivered.

Well, I never said paint was unique. I know that I’ll be into this top painted for $10k, or $7k if I just went textured black. I don’t care about a hard top that much.

Jeep OEM hard tops are around $3k, and there are lots of options in that general price range. That’s less than half the cost of this one is in textured black.

I figured it would cost more than a Mopar OEM too, but not 2.3 times as much.

We'll have to see how Patriot Fastbacks' offering turn out.

Nothing yet about it on their web site, but based on what they've been letting out via Facebook, it looks like their first offering for the Bronco will be very similar to this one that they have out for the J••p. Their price for this one is $3,881.25 , so I assume the price will be similar for the Bronco version.

Here's the rendering that they've put out so far for their Bronco version:

We'll have to wait and see when both companies' products hit the market, and we start hearing from those who've bought them, but it looks to me like of the two, Patriot Fastbacks is going to have the much better product of the two at a lower price.

I was expecting that with a more basic product, Advanced Fiberglass Concepts would offer it at a lower price, but it looks like that is not the case.
I'm more impressed with this one and it's far less money.

Does this thing even fit the doors in the cargo area in the back with that slant? Asking $5,800 without an actual final product shown, the option prices and shipping costs. Too many unknowns for a pricey asking price just to start. And for those reasons, I’m out.

yes I got it at McMahon
Great dealership, prompt and fantastic service.
I will be contacting Neil to let him know I have a top to be installed and at the same time trying to get an estimate on the cost to install. Should be in the 1 1/2 manhours, not too difficult.
Agreed, McMahon is a great, honest dealership. I love the look of the ADV, but I think I'll wait until next week to see the total cost.

Guess I’m the only one who thinks the Ford top is not “butt ugly”. I actually think it looks great!
