I'm interested in adding a canopy to by BX. I want the rigid type, not just a sunshade. Curtis makes a very nice one in Kubota orange, but the price at nearly $600 is a lot to pay for a piece of plastic. Sims has one too, but it is so big it would look ridiculous on a BX.
Does anyone know of an off-brand that makes a decent hard canopy of an appropriate size for a reasonable price?

That's quite a bit better. Thanks for the info.
Out of curiosity, does Kubota make their own canopy or do they source them? ....

I checked out the tufftop web site. How long has this tractor canopy been around? Does it tend to deteriorate after it has been in the sun a lot? ....
