Blue or Bronze Glass Top?
Picking up an Admiral Blue ZR1 this friday!
Need to order a glass top as the car doesnt come with one. Just got off the phone with Melrose and they told me that both blue and bronze tops will look black from the outside. My question is, which tint is easier on the eyes on sunny days? |

Good to know.. I have a blue top, Fiberglass top and a Bronze (thought it was grey) that needs weatherstrip and a lens due to a crack..

Re: Blue or Bronze Glass Top?
I have used the blue top on all three ZR-1's I have owned. My current top came from Melrose and I have been pleased with their product and customer service.
