Roll cage for me, but then I don't like CF so the choice was easy.

not only is it ugly, its worthless. Only good for bling, and since its ugly, not very good bling at that. I hate unpainted carbon too so my vote would be invest your money...

Cusco cage, because then you can start saving up for a Mooncraft hardtop (it requires a 4pt roll cage)

Best bang for the buck? Hmmm...maybe a night at the Bunny Ranch in NV?

you're not really getting any bang for the buck with either of those as they are mostly just for looks. pick which one you like better. I'd lean towards the lip as it completes the look of the car. Although those cusco cages are pretty bling looking. Too bad they haven't gotten many positive reviews from the s2000 community.

thanks for all the opinions guys. you are all right in one way or another tho. i definitely wouldnt get any bang for my buck with either. im just debating which would make my car look better out of the two. i think the cage def looks sweet but it is pretty useless. i think i am going to go with the lip for now since the deal i can get on the lip is more temporary.

does anyone know if the 4 point cusco cage prevents the seats from being slid all the way back?
