So.....what would look best with a Midnight Blue Bronco....a black or tan soft top? I can't really picture either of these, so if someone has any pictures of one of these setups lets see it! Thanks for your opinions! ;D

I say tan. I nearly went with midnight blue for my Bronco but in the end decided to keep it dark green. I have a spice (kayline) top and think it looks real nice. The spice color looks great with the blue and sets it apart from all of the blue/black trucks out there.

On a side note, it's more difficult to find tan accessories such as seats, seat belts, floor mats, etc. (if you care about all that stuff matching).

I'm not a big fan of black & blue, personally, I think tan would look better. That's you're choice, though ::) ::)

Tan does look good with blue, But the top should match either the body color or match the bumpers and grill.
Too many colors will make it look pieced together.

Currently the interior is white but needs to be redone so....tan would be an option. I currently have chrome bumpers and a white hard top. What color should I paint the tube bumpers I will be getting soon? Same color as the body or paint them silver/gray?

If you have access to Adobe Photoshop, you can color modify a picture scan to dial color schemes. I have done this for the exterior, but this approach is especially useful for the interior given the number of colors and coutours involved.

Color schemes are either dead-on or way way off. Nothing worse than a project not looking "just right" after huge effort and $$.
