3k sounds abought right for FRP, now way should FRP be worth 6k+ Bulletproof says something about requiring a roll cage/bar? Any ideas, maybe its required as part of mounting or something?
It will require a 4-8 point cage for mounting purposes. I just confirmed this last night. It is a dry carbon hardtop.

no FRP well, I'd guess that for those considering Mugen CF this is a pretty good alternative? Its only ~1k more and the aerodynamic profile looks way better.

I think the look is cool. With that roof line, you would have something that would look like the Porsche Cayman but way better.

That's the hardtop coupe that is supposed to come out next year.
