Actually Moss Motors and VB do not carry the 'aero' roll bar. The aero
bar has the main hoop and then a second, complete hoop that forms the
support legs. These two bars are welded together, then the two bars are
wrapped with a vinyl padding that makes the two bars look like one
piece. The bar that Moss Motors and VB do carry is a single hoop with
two support legs angle welded to the main hoop with a removable padded
cover. Two different designs. All the 'aero' bars I have seen over here
have come through Rimmer Bros. or Moss UK.

That twin hoop set up sounds interesting, though I too would prefer it
in black.
