Default C4 "roll bar" hoops

Spied this at Bloomington Gold over the weekend. The hoops do not go all the way through. One passerby told me that they appeared to be glued on. Interesting.

Looks nice.

Over the years I've tried locating real hoop type roll bars for my '86 vert. I could not find anything on the market.

I've seen someone here on the forum that created a stabilizer bar that went from seat belt mount on each side, behind the seats (which I'm going to fabricate myself, as well). I wonder if hoops could be welded on such a bar?

I'll see if I can locate the thread for the stabilizer bar and post it.

I'd pass if I had a vert. For appearance only.
