Pavement Ends Overview


Pavement Ends has been the affordable brand since 1999, utilizing a dedicated group of engineering and automotive professionals with over 50 years of industry experience in manufacturing soft tops and accessories for Jeep and small SUVs. We manufacture quality Jeep accessories and soft tops for the budget-conscious buyer for Jeep CJ-7 and Wrangler as well as Chevrolet/GEO Tracker, Suzuki Sidekick, Suzuki Samurai and Isuzu Amigo. Pavement Ends has created a name in the business by manufacturing and selling Jeep tops and accessories.  They also make tops for a few other vehicles.  These tops are very affordable.  More recently, they have started manufacturing and selling Jeep bumpers.   

The organization’s products come in a variety of factory-match colors. They are made of heavy-duty, durable automotive fabric and Department of Transportation (DOT)-approved vinyl clear and tinted window applications. Additionally, the merchandise includes sealed seams and strength-tested industrial thread with strong zippers to provide endurance. These products come with a one-year warranty.

Pavement Ends soft tops are interesting because they have a sunroof that can be folded back so that motorists can still take advantage of the sun and good weather while having the feeling of protection that a roof on their Jeep offers.  These soft tops are called Flip Tops. For those with knowledge about the belt-rail system, installation of these tops is easy.  Customers who are uninformed with regard to the process will find it easy. These tops are sold as kits.  The kits contain the soft top, hardware, windows and the soft top deck.  For motorists who would like upper doors of the same soft top material, those are available on some models. 

The way these tops are made offer drivers and passengers a great degree of safety.  They are constructed from auto grade fabric and the vinyl that is used on the side and rear windows is DOT approved.  The weakest points would be the seams, but these are reinforced and sealed seams with all thread and zippers used being of industrial strength. 

Pavement Ends front bumpers are made with high quality 3/16” steel.  It has maximum strength because it is of a stamped construction.  Customers can get them for the Jeep TJ or the Jeep JK.  They include D-ring brackets for mounting and are powder coated to create a scratch resistant surface.  If motorists want to customize their bumper with lights or anything else, the back of the bumper has an open construction to make this easier for them.  Most states now require license plates on both the front and the rear of your vehicle.  Pavement Ends has taken this into consideration and has pre-drilled the mounting holes. They also offer a winch plate as an accessory.

Just like the front bumpers, the rear bumpers are available for the Jeep TJ and JK, have a powder coating and include the mounting brackets.  They also have the same stamped steel as the material.  The construction design is a solid box to enhance strength and the edges are angled giving it that sleek, aerodynamic look.  Again, like the front bumper, the holes for mounting the license plate are pre-drilled.

Pavement Ends sells products to all of the largest automotive warehouse distributers, which means that fantastic local retailers all over the country can quickly get any Pavement Ends product, even if they do not have it in stock. This lets customers buy Pavement Ends products at their favorite Jeep dealer. Because of our relationship with Bestop, Pavement Ends products can be bought wherever Bestop products are sold.
