Can't tell by the small pics, how strong are those supports? They look a little thin...

The supports are ones that are used on pontoon tops, i'd imagine with a little snow on the top it would probably cave, but that's why i have a garage! so far at highway speeds it doesn't move one bit. the supports also fold orward onto the truck,so i could still have a pick-up like suv. i can't take the credit for the work, had a guy who does marine upholstery do it. the design is mine though! only 350 bucks total!

Ide like the top but not shaped like the 4runners old but more as a cover for the back seats and bed area.

Looks great dude!

You could make the rear like killer toy and use the rear window.

That's definitely different, but it looks great. Also is well in the affordability range, I may have to look into something like this for my 4runner.
