You could try making your own,
I bought some black vinyl from the Joann fabric store that was on sale for $10 a yard and I bought 2yds for my 4dr.
I I measured how long I wanted it and gave it an extra 3" cuz I have 1.5" overlaps, do the same for the sides too.
Sewn up the overlaps all the way around the vinyl.
Then I bought a grommet kit and ball bungee cords from harbor freight.
Then install it. I had to install more grommets and bungees a few days after testing it out cuz it flapped a lot more than my mesh top.
I think in total I spent about $50 and I had it on for about 4 months straight, with lots of freeway driving and its held up great.
If u dont have a sewing machine, you could take the top to an upholstery shop or even the dry cleaners and have them.sew it up really quick. It only takes a few mins to sew it up.
I love my homemade top compared to my smittybilt mesh top cuz in the summer here in so-cal, your not in direct sunlight all the time. With the mesh top, your constantly in the sun and the mesh doesn't really help you from roasting your forehead lol. You will still have the darker tan on you left arm/leg as all jeepers do though.
IT'S A JEEP THING!

I have a besttop on my JKU that I picked up cheap on Craigslist. I made my own sunshade from some pet screen I bought at Llowes using the same method that bob-o used to make his top. it's pretty easy if you have a sewing machine!
