Reviews: Bestop Supertop NX (Black Diamond) - 54723-35

This is a great top. I bought one for a TJ i owned and am familiar with the quality from Bestop products. When the top for my 08 unlimited needed to be replaced I purchased the Bestop with out looking at anything else. Great fit and quality!! The CON: The instructions were the worst I have seen. I followed the instructions word for word. When I went to place on the jeep I had to undo everything and start over with the top over the top of the vehicle so I could see that everything fit the right way. If you need a replacement top, buy this one!!!!!!!

Great product. High quality, install took about 4 hours. There is a YouTube guide by bestop which was more helpful than the printed directions. I do have an issue with customer service from 4 wheel parts and cannot get a returned call or email so I will not be ordering from them again anytime soon. Hopefully someone reads these reviews and will contact me.

It took 4days for the top to come in and everything was packaged well, with the help of YouTube and reading some of the instructions it was pretty simple with another person helping you out! But the hardest part is just putting the screws in, cause some of the holes on the bars have to opened but once that was done it was pretty much simple and an easy 3 hour install. Glad i got this top!

During installation, one of the plastic pieces broke that is supposed to hold a cross member. I still gave the top four stars because I don't believe you need this cross bar installed. It looks as though it was designed to put tension on the fabric so it doesn't flap up and Down while driving. My top was so snug, that it doesn't flap even without the cross bar. My only concern is that the top will stretch out eventually and of course start to flap! We shall see.....

Read reviews and watched install videos, and decided to let 4-Wheel Parts in Sparks/Reno, NV install for me for $200 vs. spending 3-4 hours doing it myself. Top works so well, I am wondering if my hardtop will be going back on the Jeep this Winter. The soft-top does have more road noise (mostly noticeable at Hwy speeds 65+MPH), but with better sound isolation and buffeting than my previous CJ7 and TJ ownership experiences. Also, for those who've never owned a soft-top Wrangler, there's significantly more radiant heat that comes through the top; however, in Reno, NV at 90+degrees on a cloudless afternoon, the A/C is able to keep up and maintain a comfortable cabin temperature. This is my first Wrangler soft top with the sunroof feature, and boy do I like it! I originally bought this top thinking I'd run it Bikini style with no windows, but have found the sunroof feature so easy to fold open and so large that with the four door windows down and the sunroof open, I feel as if I'm topless!! (...and yet maintain quick and easy protection from the elements should I come across an afternoon thunderstorm). I have a couple weeks and a few hundred miles under the Supertop NX, and so far I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

The top is very well made. The kit had some incorrect parts which I worked around but I'm still waiting for replacement parts. The top is pretty easy to lower but somewhat difficult for one person to raise. The top did lift off the vehicle at highway speeds when there was a strong cross wind but seems generally secure. Overall a good product but a little expensive.

Easy to fold down but heavy and cumbersome to put back up without help.
