Any news of a mesh (or solid) bikini top other than jtop?
 
I installed Alien brand. It's not "designed" for the BRaptor, but it works just the same. Amazon I think.

I don't have any pics currently.

Go to Amazon and search "alien bimini top ford bronco". It's Amazon's top choice. I installed it over the center bar that only comes on a Raptor. It fit perfectly and I haven't had a single issue.

Why don't you like Jtop? I installed a Jtop and am very happy with it.
The velcro and adhesive is not an option. I think the way it wraps over the roll bar is also not clean enough. IMO
 
Mo, I think the JTOPS is the cleanest by far. Why is the velcro/adhesive not an option?

Not an option as in I think it doesn’t look clean along the roll bar IMO. I’d rather a more “roped on” look. I got one of those alien tops to mess with. My company does, among other things, fabric awning type work….so we have a work shop made for fabric. I’ll tinker with it and post what I come up with.

Modified alien top. Moved a set of grommets, repaired the old holes, then reinforced the area that above the cross bar and made a zipper pocket to go around the bar. That keeps it quiet. I happen to have a very similar mesh at work so it looks very clean.
