OEM vented hoods are HOT FTR - and I don't have one.... yet 
Also, the Cusco cage is... meh, very out of place in a convertible. But to the guy who brought it all up, I love the Meisters and the Veilside underwings. Probably my next setup.. on the better platform of course (AP2)
(figure since we're O/T we might as well start ANOTHER debate LOL)

From my understanding he was wearing his seatbelt and he did not have a 6pt cage. If i recall correctly he had a 4pt Safety 21. So i fail to see how he cold have hit his head. I mean your gotta be tall as hell to manage that. But hey what do i know i could be wrong.
Not sure which bar he had, but this a pic...

I'm not saying the rollbar is going to make the car LESS safe. I'm just saying they aren't certified for track use for a reason.

why not a custom fabbed, welded, and frame-bolted cage made by an engineer?

Because most roll cage builders are engineers? I highly doubt it. Most are just fabricators taking educated guesses.
You missed my point.
