Default Soft top replacement

In the near future I will need to replace the white soft top on my 72. It is a very original car and I was wondering if replacing the soft top with a black one would hurt value.

I really like the look of the black vinyl hard top on the car.

Thank you

Do what you want. If the next owner or even you decide to go white, this is not a permanent change.

Never did like white. The top on my Lemans Blue 69 is black and looks good.
