Gorgeous car, congrats on not being trapped in "paint prison"!! For what it's worth, I absolutely love the roadsters WITH the hardtop on!

Thanks! I actually had the originals re-chromed. Koko at Koko's Collision in Carrollton did my work... I believe he sent the bumpers to a third party for the re-chroming and am not sure who that was. I am sure if you call and mention my car he can tell you in the case you want to use them... I could not be happier with the way they came back!
