First of all it is your TR6 and that gives you the right to do anything
with it you please.
Second I hope you have a stonger core of self worth than to be dependant
upon this list for your self value. Us listers can resemble a school of
Great White sharks at feeding time on occasion. SO do what feels right
for you. Besides you can always change your mind later. Paint can come
off. The question is what looks better to you, your rack as finished
maybe after a bit of polishing, your rack painted or your car without the
rack installed untill you get the money ahead to get it properly
rechromed.
I have the factory style luggage rack for my TR3. The rack has been
polished then waxed. It is storred inside in a dry location until I wish
to use it. Then it comes out and is placed on the car. It gets
repolished and a new coat of wax before going back into storrage. I do
this to keep the finish nice for as long as possible. Of course now with
luggage on the rack, you don't see much of the rack anyway.
So do what feels right for you.
