The money shot. You changed my mind about chrome wheels on an S197 Darren. They really work well on your car. But you still need a boot.

my hood is carbon fiber from BMC Extremes, called the Black Mamba. My wheels are also from BMC, also called Black Mamba wheels. see a theme here ? 
When i first got the hood i ran it raw CF but the look did not grow on me. I decided to get it painted deep impact blue to match but the paint shop added 10% clear to the mix so that there would be a slight opaqueness and allow you to see the CF weave under the sun
It is also a functional ram air and vents directly to the CAI. I have had mine tuned, but the JLT CAI uses the stock MAF sensor. My stock hood is resting peacefully in a spare room and has not bubbled (knock on wood)

I said it before and I'll say it again, one of favorites on this site.

Still one of my favorites as well! Honestly, I never cared much for the convertibles until I saw your car. I'm not a usually a fan of polished/chrome wheels either, but I can't imagine anything looking better. You've really pieced everything together so well. It all fits/works perfectly.
