For a 'work in progress' it looks pretty darn good.

I love the 10 spokes - mine are just starting to pit and peel. I'll probably make the investment to get them rechromed, or I'll pick up a set of painted 10 spokes and get them PVD coated. I just can't bring myself to part with the 10 spokes.

Not an SS, but I love my LPM Z28! I tried something different and painted my chrome 10 spokes. Needed a new look after about 9-10 years.

May I ask which roll bar you are running? Could you take some detailed pics of top up? does the bar touch the top? I am going to do this probably this summer.

Instead of chroming it's basically almost like a wrap - allegedly very durable. Won't pit or peel like chrome. Lighter too:

It's not cheap :-( Neither is re-chroming though...

No problems with the top being up. The roll bar padding has to be cut right though, at first the padding was against the top. The roll bar is a Wolf Racecraft 6 point. I had it installed with swing out on butch sides for ease of entry. The sig picture is also with the top up with the roll bar.
