Roll bar is finished...for now
I still need to get the padding and tape and also obviously finish the cutouts in the decklid. After the cutouts are finished I will paint about the first 6 inches of the decklid semigloss black. Should clean it up nicely. The tabs are for some lexan plates in the near future. The whole thing weighs about 25 pounds...maybe 20.
I have yet to drive it as it is over 90 degrees out and too hot for me. But I am pretty sure it will stiffen up the frame some.

Nice work Chris. How exactly did you attach it to the frame if I missed it? I think what all of vert owners dread are cutting things up to make a rollbar work and you confirmed it.
