Default [PICS] Rollbar....

Don't make fun of my rear carpet! I am going to be replacing it. That's why I didn't care to much about the cuts for now. So shush!!!

Got a few more :D on the computer, I don't remember where you got yours, was it used and if not where did you get it and how much was it????The reason I have some many pics is I am tring to find someone to make the red one for my car, but that has been very hard to do here in Nashvillle, nobody will touch a street car. :mad :mad I made the camera bar like you did last year and it worked great (thanks again for ripping that roll bar padding off again) :cheers: :cheers:

Your roll bar does look nice however, it seems to lack a cross bar that I see on new bars put in. It is designed so if you wreck, your head doent side back in between the bar and get ripped off (serious!!!)
E mail bluewasp@yahoo.com and ask him for his roll bar pics in his GS.
hope this helps :flag
