Soft top frame (1 Viewer)

[copasspupil]

Are the frames always painted body color? If my interior is black line-x and the body color is red, what color would you paint the frame?

I would paint it red. You do not want a black frame on a sunny day with the top off and frame left on. It will get very hot. At least that is a good rule of thumb here in FL. I do think they were painted to match the body.
