Tony you forgot look pretty too. But I guess that kinda goes along with your point.

Ooh, and chicks dig a guy with a rollbar. They're the wicked panty solvent

I fully expect the Cusco bar comes with fine print saying: DO NOT USE THIS ROLLBAR IN A ROLLOVER SCENARIO. DOING SO MAY CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH.

I don't know anything about their other stuff...I'm sure skeptical about the underbody chassis stiffeners All that aside though, I've seen this bar in person and there's no way it's good for anything other than show.

I don't think the Cusco bar is worthy enough to support a harness, let alone provide rollover protection.

no I have their sway bars and "x" brace and they seemed like quality products. But now I'm thinking if they made a POS rollbar what would keep them from making other POS parts...like my sway bars and "x"brace.

Its kinda of weird that everybody bashes the Cusco but nobody bashed the Mugen bar. The one problem with the Cusco bar is the back mounting points but thats easy fixed.

Dustin, I don't like the way to Cusco bolts together either...it's more than just the backing plates as far as I'm concerned.
