Default One piece top cap

Looking for any info on the one piece top cap instead of t tops. Do they fit good? Do they look good? Are they a pain in the ***?
Thanks

Here is a picture I took last Saturday at Old Town in Orlando. I didn't get to talk to the owner but the top seemed to fit well.

I've looked in to it because I personally never remove the t-tops, I decided against it because the wife wants to go topless

They call it a rain coat, but it shrinks when it gets wet.
Now there's quality!

I believe you have really two choices, Astro top, http://www.astrotops.com/ a fraction of the price of the Dynamic Corvette's. https://dynamiccorvettes.com/catalog/ Page 66 in the Dynamic corvette catalog. No expert, but I think the DC is probably made way better and complements our car a lot more. Unless you want to be able to see through them.
