When installed the canopy should look something like this.

Absolutely fabulous. What did you use to color the black frame work???

I cannot paint "cans of peas" quickly or easily and get good results. Originally, I liquid masked and painted the windscreen silver. But did not like the color. Chart pack stiping tape the solution.

Forgot to mention. All edges were covered with thin gas line tubing. This simulated the rubber seals that seal the can of peas. The gas line also gives the edges a nice finished look. Even W/O painting, doing a can of peas this way takes time, but time is something I have!

Did the striping tape come in the flat color???

Yes both in flat and gloss. The gloss adhesive stinks. The flat sticks like a good masking tape.
