make sure you have a professional do your cage so you don't get a pile of dangerous bars like i did.

Anti-roll bar Mitch? Hmmm, that sounds like a good idea. Someone should have mentioned one for your car a long time ago.

NBS does some very nice work and are nice people too.

Jp,
What kind of cage are we talking here...
Because this is not apples to apples, if you are trying to compare cages...

Some of these are 8 pt. some are 10, some are.. well, I can't even tell you how many point it would be called.. LOL...

Anyways, some of these are MS and some are CM... what style cage do you have.. .I know it is a a 10 point ( or at least that is what I think it is, but what kind MS or CM )

Actually, that is not the correct way to do it. The subframe connector is not the frame. Ask about it when you get the cage certified.

What is the correct way?

Smokeshow - My cage is an MS 10 point. I wasn't asking for comparison purposes - just for viewing pleasures Well, actually, just to see how everyone else's car(s) looked w/the cage in them. Painted, unpainted, roll bar pads, bare, straight bars across the doors, kickout bars at the doors, etc. Just to see what everyone else has/had so I can make sure the choices I made for my car are on par

Thanks for all the pics guys!! Lovin' it!! Car should be getting the cage and welding done pretty soon - just waiting on Uncle Sam
