Paint idea??
 
I am wondering if anyone has painted their windshield a-post to match the color of the removable top?

I know the trucks stop at the drip rail just like the tops do unless they have a full two tone paint job.

I don't believe there was such a thing as 2 tone until '73 on a Blazer, trucks yes, Blazers no.

Right. Thats why I am wondering if anyone has painted the top of the a-post like they did on the trucks.

I personnally have not seen any painted this way. Probably because the white A-pilars would look kind of lost when the top was off. But that's just my opinion.

Here's my blazer before I tore it apart. The top and a pillar were painter dark blue.

thanks warbucket. That was the idea I was thinking about, just reverse color scheme.
