I think I have seen a Solstice or a Miata with Chromed hoops like this and they looked nice. I like what you have done so far. It will be interesting to see how it blends in with the rest of the car when looking at the front. From the back it should look great.

That is sexy Ben, really sexy. Now install em, and post up pics. The only negative to this whole thing, is that it scratches VERY easily.

Maybe they could be clear coated? Scratching would be a major problem, but a few layers of something other than chrome might help.

The great thing about this paint system is that it is clearcoated. The clearcoat is a urethane system, very similar to what is used in factory paint jobs. If it scratches, then I can buff it out.

Thanks for the positive comments. Just 7 days and it is on to the next project...
