Default Roll bar/cage interest?

Hi there. I've been looking into getting a cage for my car but haven't really found anything I like thats out there. I contacted a friend of mine who builds off-road race trucks for a living and he is very interested in producing a roll cage/bar for our cars. My question is what is everyone else interested in, a cage or just a bar? Also what price range would you expect to pay for something like this? One last question, I believe I've read in the past that the 00-01's have a different fittament for roll bars then the 02-03's. Is this true? Please post interest in what you would like to see made so I can bring it back to my friend.


Kevin

I'm more interested in a bar than a cage since my car is still streeted and I don't think it looks good with the top down and a full cage sitting there. Others, such as Krazik and DavePK, may have more interest in a full cage. As far as a bar goes I think my needs will be met by Elda Engineering's design as seen here:

However, until I buy one the more options the better

Kevin, use the Elda one and Bitterman bars as points of referance. Thats whats available so far in the states. Mugen, Spoon, and Cusco also have a more detailed cage design. Take a look at those as well

Good luck, I would luv to hear what your guy can do

roll bar that comes with a custom interior piece that replaces stock plastic cover would be nice.

I swore I posted on this thread.....anyhow, there is a difference in the 00-01 and the 02+ fittaments, but there was actually more convertible top clearance with the Bitterbar in the '02 than there was in the plastic-windowed S2Ks. The bar that came out of DavePKs fit just fine in my '02.
