I like the way the roll cage is welded to the rear chassis rail. That's how it should be done IMO. Others I've seen are welded near the shock mount.

Thanks. You may notice that it is almost identical to Berk Technology's 135 cage. I essentially walked into the shop, handed them the photos of Berk's car and said "built it like this". Hah. Not that they didn't know what they were doing tho; just an alignment of expectations from both sides.

Yeah. I'll likely buy the proper grilles for the bumper and pop them in this winter. I can see some decent nicks on the oil coolers already from flying debris.

Fitment isn't that great. But it's a racecar so no biggie. You can also find them in CF; don't know about fitment tho.
