Custom cage YES but my car is a STREET car, double side bars with cage will make me climb in and out of the car everytime. Seriously, I will have DIFFICULTY everytime getting IN and OUT of the car.

I hated it when the carbon door closes and it makes a lot of hollow sound and expecially with speakers, you turn it louder , the more it rattles I had enough with my EX-EK and I dont want that in my s2k.

^A roll cage on a street car is very dangerous,you can get seriously hurt in a accident.
I have to disagree with you. The cage will actually make the car safer for impact. The cage reduces the chances of the chassis collapsing under impact.

Carbon doors with no side beams, you will not get seriously hurted and indeed you will DIE if you crash.

^your car might be "betterer" but your head will likely hit one of the top beams and without it having the proper padding, it will be bad.

i believe that done right a cage on the street can be safe, but it can very easily be deadly as well.

just be cool and drive on the street with your helmet every time:>
