Anyone have any advice that has ordered from him before? Any material that is better or colors that last longer? Thanks for any advice.

I would like to order one as well but have been unable to find out how to get a hold of him. I would need it for an FJ43. I am in Texas and would be interested in doing the shipping to Austin as well if it changed the price at all.

Anyone know if this is his webpage? Green Country Cruisers - FJ40 Reproduction OEM Soft Top
I wouldn't buy anything from that guy. His soft tops were awful. There's at least one guy here on mud that makes a far superior top.

I contacted him from that same site and didn't hear back for 2 months. This is his primary email that goes directly to his phone...or it was a year ago. mailto:Ehsankiani@gmail.com
He quoted me $900 for top and bows, and $300 shipping. I had other things pop up that took priority so I never did get around to ordering. I've read that he was active on here years back and offered a good product at first, but ran into some quality problems. That's all before my time on here, so hopefully someone with first hand experience will chime in with a review.
And there you have it..:
The quality of the tops aren't great. I'd get bows from him and a top from @Trollhole.

That sounds like a great idea.

That sounds like a great idea. Depending on shipping cost.

Sweet rig! $1000 for bows and 1300 for top?
I know it is $$$ but I can tell you (from someone who has had BOTH tops) that it is worth the added cost.
On a side note (if you don't know this already) Ehsan will only begin to make you a top when you wire a cashiers cheque to him. At this point you have no recourse at all if the deal goes south. Send the $$$ and pray in 6 months you have a top. I and many others have had good dealings with him but that was at a time when he was the ONLY gig in town (worldwide). Now that there are better domestic options, I would certainly go that route.
Keep us posted on the route you choose and any recommendations for later "Cruiserheads" when they search for options.

Its hot as hell in Austin. I was going to go with a black top has it not faded at all?
another option is Abe with Teq tops
he can get bows as well
good quality
pm me for his info if you can't find it
I have not had a troll hole but have heard they are good
had one of Abes it was great

Trollhole for sure.
As an alternative to buying new, call around - I bought a used frame for the top for a whole lot less. Also, it did take 6 weeks to get my top - but I hasten to add, it's a quality top that is custom made to your order; and quality does take time.

Ask Kurt @cruiseroutfit or @pardion about Eshan before you purchase from him. IIRC he has some unfinished business, to put it mildly.
