Looking for options for my car, I am moving back home(Guam), and would like all the work done on my car before I leave. I know I can get a custom one built, but that cost too much right now. What roll bars are you using, and where and how much did you get them done for. thanks.

I have one it's a competition engineering.
A little welding and notching.
Not bad for 130 that I paid for the 8 point.
Got it from Summit.

I welded it myself. ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
I was going to tig weld it but too much of a hassle to get the tig welder over the place or take the car to my buds shop.
So I just used a 220 mig welder.

I have the 8pt bar with swing outs and a couple improvements. This stuff felt really heavy to me. I had a friend in lodi weld mine in and it came out ok but took 3 monthes ![[Eek!]](eek.gif) My application did not justify a custom tig welded chromolly cage.

Do it yourself if you can weld. It's a long project but worthwhile.

500 for everything, as in the cage, welding, painting, and install, if that is the case take it
i have an MM cage in my car with swing out bars cost me $400, there are only 2 tubes u have to weld, i set up my welder and did it in 10 minutes
