Default New Roll Bar!

Here she is... Im real happy. The rollbar isnt as high as some, but its high enough for me. Because I had them leave it back so far I lost a little height...
The seats are awesome! The rear of the seat is pretty low... and I can interchange my seats in 10mins.

Now I have all winter to try and fit in some of these plastic pieces! Any suggestions on how to make it look better? My one sacrifice... the secret compartment doesnt work anymore.
enjoy!

Looks good I hope you wear a helmet whenever you drive it or you are really short.


Just looked at the pic in your sig and it looks like your head is going to be right on the bar so pad the crap out of that thing.

Looks good

Get some of the SFI (hard) foam padding.

Can you use the stock seat belt?

VIR here we come.

It looks like my head will be close it the picture, but it really isnt... The roll bar is maybe 1 inch foward of where the stock roll hoops are.

The bar is close to what the Lovefab bar will be

The top just barely clears the bar


Thanks George! The stock seat belt will work with the stock seats... not the race seats.

How much lower are the seats?

Did you try the broomstick test?
