I just painted my VSR roll bar in the past 2 days. What a total bitch to get done. I just did a rattle can job because most of its going to be covered up by padding anyways, just need to fill the gaps.
I let it sit outside for a while and it got some surface rust on it, a little sanding took it right off though, no pitting or anything. Although when I got it in the mail it was already chewed up a bit.

It looks a lot better in person, the super dark spots is where I threw some more paint on, its impossible to get that center piece back on without scratching the paint all up.
I dont know if this is supposed to be bent like this though...

It came like that
The center piece was TERRIBLE to get back in. I spent about 45 min trying to wrestle is all back together. I ended up using those cargo straps that you can tighten down to try and shift the center piece and outer hoop to line up.
But its done!
