Roll bars


The Ebay ones are not made for impact like real roll bars are. There is some chance it could break and cause more injury in the event of an accident.

Careful. Cusco is said by some to be just a bling bar and not recognized legal by scca and others.
If you really want a bar, you should probably buy a Hard Dog.

It sounds like you're only after the looks, which is cool, but I'd still make it a late mod. IMO it'll look odd on an otherwise bone stock car.

The car will be stock when i find it/buy it the next few weeks but it wont be stock for long at all. Ive seen a few on here that have the bars that come over both doors, those are what Im looking for.

This is what is hilarious. Ashton, you will not get far with us if you plan on doing things ascetically without even owning the car. The advice we have all been given and give frequently is get the car, check the tires (replace if needed), get an alignment, change fluids, and drive it. Save you money from a BS roll bar and use it towards driving lessons. Enjoy it and learn it in and out before you modify it. I've had my car for 6 years and I've put wheel, exhaust and a header on it. I finally got coil overs. I've added these things after four years of ownership from an almost stock car (anything nonstock was from the previous owner).

Agreed, also get some seat time with autocross. Develop your skills and realize you might not even need one

OP,

It's your money and your car. . .wait it's NOT your car yet, so go ahead and hypothetically 'mod' the car all you want. With that being said, everyone else is right, LEARN the car, do some research, and THEN figure out what you want. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with buying shit just because you wanna look cool, but I am.

Mike
