sooo i really cant decide on the two, the styling bar looks really good i think but it wont be enough for track use...but a roll cage just doesn't look right in a vert...there out of place looking they don't go with the lines of the car! if anyone has pics of a cage in a vert post them up!!

I honestly think a 4-point cage looks very aggressive in a vert. AND its functional [Wink] [patriot]

cages dont look right on a vert imo. if your trying to make a semi track car, id just go with a coupe

Roll bar FTMFW!!!
Looks bad ass and it actually is function. Great chasis stiffener, and would help in a roll over
Style bars look good. But offer no function

Believe it or not the light bars will save your life in a roll over

I have a Saleen Speedster imo it wouldn't look right with a cage...I prefer the styling over the cage in my vert. I never race my vert so looks over function.

Cage. Reenforced structure and safety should you wreck or manage to flip your car.

]Looks good, but all that color matching is a little too much for my taste. The Blue convertible terminator that AED built had a nice looking roll cage that ran nice with the lines of the car. I cant find a picture it though.

I always liked the look of the styling bar. But maybe you can try to find a roll bar that looks similar to one? I was looking at some before

04cobra408- i didnt know you were on here..i have a picture of your car in front of AED and i wanted more pics of the cage...thanks for posting those brotha!!

im pretty sure ima just go with the styling bar...i just cant get into the cage, it doesnt go with the lines of a 99-04 car for some reason..they look out of place

I have a 4 pt. In my vert and it was one of the best mods I ever did next to subframes . It looks sick as hell too!!

4-point cage looks terrible, but so does a styling bar

Do a matte-black finish of the 6/8 point cage like cobra408 posted up - it'd look great w/ any color/finish

And for God's sake - don't color match it to the car

No problem man [patriot] mine is a
6pt with removable swing outs. Makes it easy to get in and out when I don't have them on the car. Is the pic te one with drew's truck ? I Love that pic. Or is It the one of just my car in front .?
