Peace...

Yes, strobes + 4ft high wing + polished chrome rollcage is a killer combo

I am currently out of town so I don't have the contacts with me.
The 1st shop is Raven Performance/Bavarian Motorsport (they are 1 shop) who has done various full/halfcage and rollbar setups for street and race cars. The other one is a privateer shop owned by O'Brian. Both guys have got some nice reviews and their prices vary depends what you are looking for (paint, material, construction, specific welding/design, from basica rollover protection to full race car setup).

I am not related to those guys in anyway, I am looking for a shop to do a halfcage in my car as well. I do not have 'direct' experience with the above two shops (I have seen their works though in BMW Club of Canada events)so I should reserve the comments to those who have personally delt with them.

If you guys don't mind jumping to another forum and posting some direct Qs to the owners of the cages/bars. Please go here <--- A small background description: this is a site run by a few local (T.O.) auto/motorsport enthusiasts (including myself).

[B]FC in TO - I know this is no longer useful info but you might know someone who needs this info. For a Z3 or an M roadster there is a company in Massachusettes called HMS.

Sorry guys to post another reply here.

I just remember 2 of our featured cars have full roll cages built respectively by those two shops

E30 M3 with Raven Performance/Bavarian setup

E30 332 with O'brian's setup

Enjoy.

Woh...'salamander' run sounds fun.
I am not too sure how comfortable I would be surrounded by hundreds of RSXs and S2Ks (Or am I even allowed as a non-Honda? )

But I'd love to join.

Go with O'Brien.

I'm getting my cage done there. I know a half dozen people personally who've had their cages done there.

O'Brien is also doing ALL the cages for the Nissan Sentra series at Mosport (regional racing).

A week ago I went looking for something that'd cover the 2 inch rule. I found the following post

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/showthread.php?...ghlight=rollbar

Look at "Elistan"'s post and then at "Desert Tortoise"'s post. Looks like the way to go.

Here's a gallery of images from a fully caged ITR by O'Brien.
