Rob,
Did you ever get any pictures like you asked. I have a disk of installing our chrome roll hoops but will need to go through a bunch to find it. Let me know here if you still need those pictures. it would take me a couple of days.

To each his own.
No reason to be gluing in roll hoops if they have been properly designed to clear the tanks like the one's Matukas Motorsports builds and sells. Slightly more expensive, but being two inch tubing that is show quality chromed, makes all the difference in the final look.
Anyway, good luck with your installation.

Be nice if you could get into a website to see their stuff. I had my computer lock up three times to enter their website when I chose not to make them my homepage and to move on. Sorry. Not for me. When I purchased mine from WCC, they told me my options were a adhesive kit or removing the fuel tanks to screw in. To permant being they are only cosmetic. I'd think twice about drilling ANY holes. Do you have some pics of yours installed?
