Custom...depending on the installer/fabricator the quality and strength are well worth the time and price. But if you just want to look cool get a cheap bolt-in cage.

My $0.02,

I have a MUGEN street cage which goes into the dash for sale....The soft top still works but you have to cut half moon's on the sides of the dash.

The Elda rollbar looks really good and everything works fine with it. www.eldaengineering.com.

i say you take the soft top off and all the motors for it and get a hardtop... that way you can get better times on your time attack... you'll save a lot of weight that way...

i want to run in the limited fr which requires the car to have current tags and must have atleast been driven partially to the event. this car will still be my weekend driver so for now i would like to keep the soft top to enjoy the sunny weather. if i choose to go deeper into the sport besides local events as i am planning on doing now then yes i will shave the 100lbs or so that the soft top takes also i would pull the A/C and other frivolous things.

please pm about the mugen roll cage

thank you
josh
